RE: (TV) CBGB movie/Immoral

Fair enough too, Keith. Perhaps others on this list are aware that you are
severely handicapped -- but I didn't. It's really saddening to realise this.
Given that condition, I have to say that you are excused for downloading
"CBGB" illegally.

But speaking about this generally, I stongly believe that must people in the
western world do not have such excuses. Most of us have the physical abilities
and money enough to buy the films and music and software we want to have. The
effect of not paying for such things should by now be obvious for anyone, I
think.  I don't have that many principles but this is one of the few --
although it may sound boring and strict and whatever.
