Russ-

We -know- that some people at Activiation read the rec.*.int-fiction 
newsgroups.  Witness their pathetic attempts to advertise before Zork 
Nemesis appeared.

Some people say that the Net has no memory.  One of the Official Rules of 
UseNet Posting is that you can't refer to information that was posted 
more than a month ago in any post.  I think this is untrue.  The hackish 
roots of Usenet are still readily apparent in a large portion of the 
newsgroups; I can't imagine doing much worse than offering a stolen Infocom 
game in areas where hackish memes still live.  You could be eaten by a 
grue...
