If the MSTer never gets a responce[sic] then they shouldn't do it. It' s a matter of politness.[sic]

You should post this to rec.arts.tv.mst3k.misc too. That's where the MSTers hang out...

Plus, the humour is of the type that's used by normal MSTers, so it wouldn't contrast as well..

The core group of MSTers (the Dibs List, run through Web Site Number Nine) do *not* MST creative works without explicit permission-- as the TV show this is all based on always had proper permission to air the movies they ripped apart.
