I don't see why this is so hard to get. If someone wants to put them all
together and make a million, I too say "more power to them", *as long as they
have asked me for permission to use my stuff first*. I have never yet refused
such a request, and expect that I never will; but I insist on the courtesy
as a matter of my right to control the products of my time.
