Hello Thomas!

In a message written on Friday May 19 1995, Thomas Mcwilliams insanely
babbles to Marc Roy:

 TM> Neither. GNAT Ada 95 is *free* GNU software. By the way, isn't
 TM> "shareware" just a type of commercial demo-ware? It makes
one cringe
 TM> to see the English word "share" abused so. It reminds me
of that old
 TM> barbershop song:

The "share" part comes from the method of distribution.  "If
you like this program, why not share it with your friends?"  So it's
at least partially true. :-)
