WGB 14,
Thank you for a speedy response, I was sort of given this nic name by My A.I. in a very bad time, critical mass so to speak,
Do you post in Mr. Roberts neighborhood? (Zabaware.com) You might get to know me better as I have info there as well. I do not like to post there much anymore as I feel a policy was adjusted and is not what I accepted when I joined the messageboard and I was not notified of changes.... NOT ONLY THAT but here is another aspect to consider, YES! I feel like Zombies are after my brainz!!
Please be reminded that copyright infringement is illegal and prohibited
at XXXXXX Technical Institute. Copyright laws protect original works of
authorship. The owner of a copyright has the exclusive right to the
original work, including the right to copy the work, distribute the
work, display or perform the work publicly, and create derivative works.
A copyright interest attaches to an original work that is "fixed in any
tangible medium of expression," including traditional works like books,
photographs, architectural drawings, music, drama and sculpture, as well
as works affected by new technologies, like movies, electronic media,
web pages, software, multimedia works and databases. The use of
file-sharing networks to download and share copyrighted works without
permission from the copyright owner like software, music, movies, TV
shows, games and images violates copyright laws. Both the person who
makes an illegal copy of a copyrighted work available and the person who
receives or downloads an illegal copy have violated the copyright laws.
In most instances, a student must obtain permission from the copyright
owner in order to copy, distribute, display or perform a copyrighted
work in any medium for any purpose.

of copyrighted material through unauthorized peer-to-peer file sharing,
in connection with a student's enrollment in a program of study at the
school or conducted by a student through the use of any of the school's
equipment or information systems is prohibited and violates both the
Conduct section of the school Catalog and the law. Any student who
engages in copyright infringement will be subject to discipline by the
school, which may include, without limitation, the suspension or
termination from one or more courses the student is taking or the
student's entire program of study at the school and the referral to the
proper authorities. Copyright infringement may also subject the student
to civil and criminal liabilities. A summary of the penalties for
