I did not quote Brian Reynolds full e-mail.  If you review his
original message you will see he is discussing downloading torrents
from questionable sources as an alternative to paying money for a
movie rental.  If I was truly incorrect in linking his statements to
illegal activity, then I am sorry.  But I have high confidence my
interpretation is correct.
