Re: WAVV requirements

Good point.  Eliminating handguns, efficiently or not, does not 
eliminate murder.  Eliminating Hercules does not eliminate piracy.  
What if it's free?  To eliminate software piracy, eliminate all 
computers.  As for P/390s, there is plenty of licensed software 
which can be pirated and run on one, ALS2 or no ALS2.  I have worked 
for some pretty large outfits who pirate software on a regular 
basis.  What has this to do with the machines they run this software 
one?  I'll tell you: absolutely nothing.

Folks, see how Payne argues...  Take a case in point.  He says, over 
and over, that all Hercules users as pirates.  Then, when it suits 
him, he denys that emphatically, despite the continued existence of 
his posts to the contrary.  Then, when I call him on it, he goes 
back to calling all of us pirates.  

The man has an axe to grind; this is as clear as can be.  What he's 
grinding it for, however, is still a mystery.  My hunch remains that 
it has something to do with his 
finances.
