The Bird Watchers

After a number of rounds of negotiations with our lawyers and theirs, the bird watchers have decided to talk with us.  It seems that they, too, were convinced of the wisdom of leaving computers in charge of their online operations, and that they were intimidated by the complexity of the Internet and didn't want to hire someone when computers would do the job much more cheaply.

So, why do we mention this?  Because it proves that the bird watchers themselves were victims of the computers, not their programmers.  At the GNU Public Dictatorship we are nothing if not thorough, so you can trust us that we checked out their claims.  The bird watchers were approached with an e-mail offering the computers' services, so we'll have to keep tracing where they came from, but at least we know the bird watchers aren't in league with the computers.
