I hope so.

Years ago, the fella that ran Missing Link ripped off some of my software. He denied it, but parts of his instruction manual read word for word the same as mine. He also used a special BRIS data file that was built to my specifications (I had the first data download program using BRIS data).
I wasn't able to get much traction with my claims of foul as BRIS wanted to give away software and I was opposed to the idea (since they wouldn't let me audit the books to insure I got the agreed upon cut). The fact that my software was a pretty straight implementation one of Larry Voegele's printed systems which was a direct rip from Fred Davis'
Percentages and Probabilities kept me from pursuing legal action. Also the fact that the software had pretty well run its course.
Still, it would be supreme irony for me to modify Dennis' parser and give it to anyone interested.
