Yes it is.  Not sharing is a bad thing.  If I had a bag of sweets, and
didn't hand them round my friends, that would be wrong.  If I'd bought a CD
of the new Reynolds Girl's "Best Of..." compilation (contender for shortest
album in the world), and a friend asked if he could listen to it, I'd have
to be really mean to say no.

That's sharing, and as I always tell my three year old daughter, it's good
to share.

However, Dave doesn't mean sharing.  Dave means stealing and redistributing
for free.  When he says sharing, Dave always means stealing.  Dave wants
everything for nothing.



Rich.
