Has anybody tried to contact the author (Aaron Walsh) in this regard? If yes, what is his take?
I do happen to have downloaded a copy of Walsh's example code way back when I first bought the book (right after it was published), but I do not want to broadcast it to the community in case there are legal implications. I'd be willing to share, though, with individuals! H. ----- Original Message ----- From: "P.
