Off Topic, but.....even if the contractor was being treated unfairly, he has
no right to the code. Usually the code is the property of the person paying
the contractor.

hahahahahahaha.... What you're BASICALLY saying is that since I don't know
this guy, he MUST be copying someone elses code.....well....yeah, that is
what I'm saying...I'm saying the code COULD be a subcontracters....

hahahaha again....are you full of crap or what? I didn't say he wasn't
correct...I don't know.  What I am saying is that rather than flame the guy,
since NO ONE KNOWS what his intentions are, just say you'd rather not say,
or its impossible, or don't say anything.

And you know this because....why? Oh, because with a 1000:1 ratio that you
don't know me, theres a 1000 times greater chance that you're wrong about
what I know about percentages..

Actually, I got 2 replys questioning the guys intentions and one who was
'pro' me.....I was so underwelmed.
