Heya Violet.

I appreciate your posting the rest of the author's page without editing, but to be honost, I didn't see that Timber's quote was taken out of context. The guy says there is to be absolutely NO copying of his page to another internet site for ANY reason - EVEN educational purposes - and that is the same thing TL was pointing out.

But since he did specify there was to be no copying of his article, wouldn't that actually make your own post (intended solely for clarification) a violation of his copyright rules?

I don't agree with the guy and I personally see NOTHING wrong with the post you made, but it did occur to me that it technically violates the author's rules. The one thing I DID get from reading the complete page is that this guy is also completely full of himself. The constant reminders that HE must be given FULL credit for the info on that page (as if no other lawyer could or would post similar material) and that - if anybody dared violate his rule and post the info somewhere else - he would find it eventually. How? Does this guy spend each evening browsing thousands of sites looking for a possible breach of his rules???

Ah well. No criticism towards you, darlin. You were acting in good faith, and I don't see anything wrong with what you did. Just didn't see that Timber had taken anything out of context either. [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img]
