Hows-it-goin' there?
Just so I know it is very clear to you, I say.
There is no problem with you taking that
job to someone local. There is no Copyright
on the work.. it is given Freely. That is my
Right.. to give away what I choose to.
Maybe, given the damage you say your body
has suffered, you may just be missing
something very obvious - in setting the
job to the machine?
Something another set of eyes will
see at a glance?
Just a thought, like :-)
