Well, what they got was the traditional breast enhancing pose for a
photographer. Suggestive, but not salicious... Still, given the
viewing environment, it wasn't appropriate. Though they tend to be
pragmatic about such things.

It's a fair bet that he would. But it did put him in a position where
he was unable to argue back. Yes, I can come up with various
justifications for pirating, and I've heard a plethora of them before.
But when your arguing with students, you need a position that they can't
negate. ;-)
I'm not a religious person, I can agree with a lot of the sentiment on
philosophical grounds, though. But not fundamentalism, and I include
computer fanaticsm in that, too. Nothing's just black and white.
