You still have to COPY it, don't you?

I've done that many times.  In SS, if I come across a new mult and my 
logger says a mult is worth 10 minutes, if it takes me 8 minutes to get 
thru the pileup I've done all right. Meanwhile, I've entered all his info 
and all the serial number except the last digit in anticipation.

But I copied it myself.  My computer didn't fill it in and I didn't get it 
from packetcluster. Not only is this legal, I don't even see it as 
unethical.
