Re: TI-86 Penguins Text File - Rather Disturbing



Sorry Allah, but I would have to DISagree (sorry for the absence of three
letters last time, I'm an idiot =) )with you.  In the documentation of a
game, an author basically is able to give his opinion about many things,
and how he wants his program to be known.  The fact is, you do use his
software often, after all, can you name one ASM game for the 86 that wasn't
written by Bill?  If you don't like his opinion, don't use his software.
