This is a little difficult to explain though: http://www.josephjenkins.com/books_humanure.html Joseph Jenkins, Inc. - The Humanure Handbook This is where Joseph Jenkins sells hard-copies of his popular Humanure Handbook online at his web store.

This crap about software piracy always reminds me of a restaurant owner I used to know in Hong Kong. I dropped in at his place for some coffee one afternoon during an economic crisis, the property market had crashed, quite a few folks went out of business and so on. "How're you doing?" I asked him. "Terrible!" he answered. "I'm losing 20,000 dollars a day!" [USD1=HKD8] It turned out that before the crash he'd been making $60,000 a day, but now he was only making $40,000 a day. But I wonder if so many copies of Windoze etc would have been sold but for all the pirating?

[Biofuel] Australia hands over man to US courts
BEFORE he was extradited to the United States, Hew Griffiths, from Berkeley Vale in NSW, had never even set foot in America. But he had pirated software produced by American companies. Now, having been given up to the US by former justice minister Chris Ellison, Griffiths, 44, is in a Virginia cell, facing up to 10 years in an American prison after a guilty plea late last month. http://www.theage.com.au/articles/2007/05/06/1178390140855.html ___ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
