Welcome to , lets call it " The GN Suckers Club - NL" .. heh heh
/opens door
It's history here (ABCP), history that maybe yourself is not aware
of?
Every year since [umm..] 2005 this troll has been run.
And every year it takes its victims to the same outcome,
disappointment. Those that genuinely would like to have
the designs from that CD in their stash are always disappointed.
The ones that want the CD as a CD?
Generally they are the ones who persist until they get a working copy
they can then burn multiples of.. take a best guess as to why <g>
They are also the ones who create all the noise around the GN posting,
making it the successful troll that it is. Jean knows all this, btw.
What could have been done -- and has been done in the past --
is to lift the designs from the CD, convert them, repack them and
post them as design sets. all named so people can update their
stash. This is what Jean refers to when he says:
<q>
Griping on me posting in a other group but then telling he is using a
considerable part of his quote to download the files and repost them
here, what is his agenda?
</q>
The GN2009 CD post will be on servers for months yet.
There is plenty of time for a truly generous person to
develop a post of "catchup", as I suggested to Frank here:

Those of us who know, do.. take care. You now are one of us --
members of *that* club.
Hard lesson learnt, eh?
The upside of the experience is to know it is very likely
that in a few days you can purchase the CD for a very
small cost. Either "on-line" or at any of the bazaars that
are the market backstreets of New York, Singapore,
Amsterdam and Piccadilly.. not forgetting Is-tan-bull (Turkey)!

As Herb once said. to me, long ago "illegitimi non carborundum"
