software (even perfectly legitimate and non-commercial uses) until after
death
is explicitly restricted. Any living being using (or attempting to use)
this software
will be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
For your protection, corpses will not be punished. We respectfully request
that you submit your uses (revisions, uses, distributions, uses, etc.) to

of the law.
Furthermore, if any parties (related or non-related) escape the punishments
outlined herein, they will be severely punished to the fullest extent of
a new
revised law that (1) expands the statement "fullest extent of the law"
to encompass
an infinite duration of infinite punishments and (2) exacts said
punishments
upon all parties (related or non-related).
