Sounds verrry impressive. Can you get more out of me than I have, and

about blood from a stone?

Now: if you're man enough, we could set up a really sporting game,
with rules as follows:
1) You post some of your intellectual property.
1.b) provide copyright notice, license warnings etc
2) We'll violate your copyright. Intimately + against your consent.
3) You profit...
Up for it?
I know I am :)
