But why should FASA give a devil rat's ass? They aren't making anything off
of those books now anyways? Personally I think they should release those
books for free online. Hey the code for Wolfenstein and Doom eventually
became public domain? Why can't the old, out-of-print books from Shadowrun
be the same?
