nope i sure didnt know of the free offer. i simply got it in an unrelated
trade from another
list member, had my day with it, and decided to try and reasonably sell or
trade it in the same
fashion which i procured it. thank you for coming out and clearing the air
with your own perspective
and information. but i will say once again that i feel this whole "ordeal"
could have been much more
constructive and less noisey if the matter of the cd being still available
free had simply been originally
brought to my attention via private email. umph.
in the process of deflating my reactions-
