No "artist" is morally obliged to       retain any specific version of his artwork when and if he has       subsequently changed it in a way he may or may not prefer more than       the version as specifici subset of the public prefers.              As part of this subset of the public, you have the power not to buy       the version the artist want to sell, but your power over his decisions       stops there.                     --       Sandman[.net]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
