Ahhh, we have another Net Nanny.
While I don't condone what Roy is alleged to have done, it's a small
thing that happens all the time (e.g. finding theme icons from Firefox
in an Opera theme), and is really between Roy and the author, and Roy
and his conscience.
Hell, I stole the Budweiser logo, and used it at the top of a humorous
piece on "Beer, The Ultimate Sports Drink". So sue me.
