Oh crap.  Does that mean when I go back to the classroom this
September, my students cannot take a city-wide final becasue it violates the
license?  (Just kidding)   I can see photocopy machines having special
chips installed to scramble any copy of any part of a book.  Ah, 
what-the-hell, kids don't read today anyway.    Bob
