[B-Greek] TDNT online

Because without copyright permission it is stealing.  If enough people
don't buy the books, the book publishers don't make enough money to fund
projects such as the TDNT or BDAG.  Those projects lasted years and cost
quite a sum of money. 

In a perfect world, a university or foundation would support such
projects (and some of the funding does come from them), but in the real
world a large percent, if not all, of the funding comes from the
publisher for projects such as those.

Besides, I like my job and want to keep eating and paying the rent :)

My first try with this ended up here:

"Restricted Page -- This page is unavailable for viewing"

Let the legal folks fight over copyrights. Meanwhile what is on the  
web is on the web and why not use it?
