Question of the day (May 23, 2007):

Stealing is considered a sin by believers in God. Our secular progressive society seems to have reached a point in our downward spiral where stealing is no longer considered to be wrong as long as you don't get caught by the police.

Is it fair that secular progressives use twenty one percent pirated software in corporate America while Christians just want to obey man's law and God's law?

Do Secular Progressives have any remorse whatsoever for this twenty one percent of stolen intellectual property in corporate America?

'What you want does not exist. MCI has licenses and in order to give you "proof" that they have not exceeded their licenses you would need to be shown each and every computer at MCI so you could count which ones had the software installed on it to make sure the licenses were not exceeded. This is not going to happen. It would be unduly burdensome.'

Email from MCI lawyer admitting out right that my department could have never passed a software raid.

Request that Kavitha Ranganathan, Rick Cassidy, Dave Vermilyea, and others be provided Verification of Ownership in case of a Verizon Software Raid

"Firing an employee for refusing to commit felonies
clearly dissuades reasonable workers from complaining in the first place"

Aug-03 MCI Executive management starts a campaign to convince stock holders, employees, and customers that MCI has been allegedly transformed into an ethical company. Dave Vermilyea and I spend the next eighteen months hounding Leon King, Pamela Hogg, and Frank Adams of the rampant use of illegal software in our department including HomeSite, MapXTreme, Oracle, Toad, and Microsoft Project.

8-22-03 I send an email to the FLPS project manager, Pamela Hogg, complaining of being forced to use stolen property against my will.

“Pamela, Can you export the project plan into Microsoft Word Format? I don’t th[i]nk we have a site license for Microsoft Project and I don’t have a personal copy. Thanks. Alvin”

Her response was to tell me where the pirated CD was located.
