This is actually entirely wrong.

For someone constantly (and rudely) insisting others should 'listen', 'stick
with the facts', 'read', 'learn' etc., it'd be nice if you returned the 
favour.

You cannot claim someone failed to distribute software under the GPL, and at
the same time take said software and excercise the rights that *would* have 
been granted to you *if* the software was distributed under the GPL.
