Foo - Random E-mail goof, circa 10 years ago.

Bikeforums.net is a forum about nothing but bikes. Our community can help you find information about hard-to-find and localized information like bicycle tours, specialties like where in your area to have your recumbent bike serviced, or what are the best bicycle tires and seats for the activities you use your bike for.

While digging through some old E-mail, I found this occuring on a mailing list dedicated to product "X", names changed to hide the innocent:

Person posting from his work address: "Hi all, the company I work at pirates "X" and uses it on all their production machines. I am wondering if I should turn them or not."

Person@product"X".com: "You just did."

Another one, though not as good was by a major UNIX OS company, making OS "Z":

Person posting randomly: "I pirate OS "Z" left and right... the licensing I just find something to patch. I guarentee that nobody will catch this."


Head-developer@product-"Z"'scompany.com: "Yes, you are right... posting that on the Internet with your real name, nobody will catch you doing that."
