Re: Epson 1280/ MIS Perpetual Color Ink

Sorry.  I should have eliminated Mr. Langston's name and left my reply on a
purely hypothetical basis.

The ultimate issue seems to be whether an illegal or unethical act is
acceptable if the likelihood of repercussion is limited.

I maintain that it is not, regardless of so-called "real-world" standards.
Quite simply, if it feels wrong - it is.  No matter how one justifies
getting around something, it smacks of rationalization in achieving one's
own agenda.

On this list and others I have found that the overwhelming majority of
professional photographers and artists adhere to a stringent code of
ethical - and legal - conduct.

As far as the "tongue-in-cheek social commentary" is concerned, the
tongue-in-cheek part did not come through although the social commentary
part did.
