Using it in the US infringes the patent. Importing a copy probably does as well. Note, however, that in the US such patent infringement is a tort, not a crime. You cannot be fined or imprisoned for it: just sued for damages by the patent owner. -- John Hasler [EMAIL PROTECTED] (John Hasler) Dancing Horse Hill Elmwood, WI -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
