<p class=MsoNormal>I guess I missed that! But I did search the archives
to find the very threatening letter by Mr. Ashley. And that's all it
was. It's been more than 12 days and I am still finding Atlas information
in the archives, from 1999! You guys better comply!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>If you can't post the year on the list, then you
may e-mail me privately. Giving me the year is no different than letting
your customers know the age of their piano. You are not infringing on the
copyright by giving the year. But I did see in the archives where some
people here were giving actual information compiled and written in the Atlas.<o:p></o:p></p>

I guess you missed the legal copyright notification posted here by none other
than the Pierce publisher that we ain't s'pose ta' be postin' copyrighted info
like that here on the list. Check the archives. It was a coupla months back. It
was big. Very annoying. Let's not start that again.<br>
