SEE YA LATER.....ef       dHERE COMES A MESSAGE TO ALL MY CONTACTS:  DID YA WONDER WHY YOU GOT NO ANSWER ON YOUR LETTERS AND DISKS ?  g THE REASON:  ON FEBRUARY, 16TH 1990 AT 14.00 I WAS WATCHING TV, WHEN 2 STRANGE MEN ASKED ME, IF MY PARENTS WOULD BE PRESENT. AFTER NEGATING THIS QUESTION THEY SHOWED ME A PAPER, ON WHICH WAS WRITTEN:  (SORRY FOR THE SLANG, BUT THE GERMAN BUROCRAZY SLANG IS TO STRANGE TO BE WRITTEN IN ENGLISH !!)  IN DEM ERMITTLUNGSVERFAHREN GEGEN NAME, GEBURTSDATUM, WOHNORT WEGEN VERDACHTS DES VERSTOSSES GEGEN DAS URHEBERRECHTESGESETZ WIRD DIE DURCHSUCHUNG DER WOHNUNG DES VERDAECHTIGEN UND ANDERER RAEUME, SEINER PERSON SOWIE DER IHM GEHOERENDEN SACHEN, INSBESONDERE DER FAHRZEUGE ALLER ART ZUR AUFFINDUNG VON BEWEISMITTELN ANGEORDNET.  DIE VORGEFUNDENEN BEWEISMITTEL WERDEN BESCHLAGNAHMT, INSBESONDERE SOGENANNTE RAUB-DISKETTEN NEBST ANGEBOTS- UND ANSCHRIFTENLISTEN.  DIE ANORDNUNG ERFOLGT AUFGRUND DER PARAGRAPH 94, 102, STPO, WEIL ZU VERMUTEN IST, DASS SIE ZUR AUFFINDUNG VON BEWEISMITTELN FUEHREN WIRD.  VON EINER VORHERIGEN ANHOERUNG BETEILIGTER IST ABGESEHEN WORDEN, WEIL SIE DEN ZWECK DER ANORDNUNG GEFAEHRDEN WUERDE.   THIS WAS THE CONTENT OF THIS SHEET OF PAPER.  AS THE COPS FOUND WHAT THEY WERE SEARCHING FOR, THEY WERE VERY HAPPY. THEY FOUND NO ADRESS-LISTS, BUT 200 DISKS, WHICH WERE ALMOST DEMOS AND INTROS.  THE LUCK WAS WITH ME, 'CAUSE TOC LENT 130 DISKS OF ME THE DAY BEFORE.   THE THURSDAY AFTER THIS I HAD TO VISIT THE POLICE.  HERE ARE SOME OF THE QUESTIONS, THEY ASKED ME:   HOW LONG ARE YOU COMPUTING ?   WHY DID YOU COPY THOSE GAMES ?   HOW DO YOU LIKE YOUR PARENTS ?      SO, THAT IS THE REASON, WHY I DIDN'T ANSWER THE LETTER FOR A WHILE.   BUT DON'T WORRY, TOC WILL SEND NEW VIRGIN PRODUCTIONS, SOON.    NOW I GIVE THE KEYBOARD TO TOC AGAIN...       ... YEAH, HERE I AM AGAIN.  HERE ARE SOME DETAILS OF MY AMIGA-SYSTEM-CONFIGURATION:  I HAVE AN AMIGA 500 V1.3 WITH 1.8 MB FAST-RAM,512 KB CHIP-RAM, VIRUSKILLER MODUL, 2 EXTERN DISK-DRIVES, AN 14 YEARS OLD SHARP (LINYTRON) TV SET, A LOT OF GARFIELD STICKERS, 300 DISKS ....
