The point about casting stones is "forgiving others as we would wish to
be forgiven ourselves". BUT an underlying requirement of forgiveness is
that the offender is sorry and doesn't intend to continue doing the wrong.

"casting the first stone" doesn't mean "hey, everyone is doing it so let's
just keep quite and keep doing it"

Having a short debate about software theft wont kill the piclist, but
hopefully it will raise awareness amongst software users about the
real cost to themselves concerning the use of indiscriminately pirated
software
