and of course you are on the list as "Baffled" and "Still Baffled" right? To stand strong on convictions and agree with issues is one thing, To hide is another. Why hide behind an alias? Do you not believe strong enough in what you say? Don't bother answering that it is too stupid to discuss.

as far as after the fact. that is true. What makes you so sure of yourself that he was aware of it. I know ( just a hunch) you are the one that wrote it .. right.. but as he said others had agreed to help him to put the site together... he admitted he was wrong and was looking for a solution.. not a lawsuit.. but whoever you are..you may never understand the words "I am sorry" and the true meaning of compromise, understanding, and compassion. God forbid if Terry made a mistake to trust someone.. problem is there isn't enough of that going around. Everyone wants to sue..Sue me and I am not afraid to say who I am..I am the same person that posts everywhere as the same name. I don't have to hide..Why are you?
: Of course, this was done by Terry AFTER the fact, which certainly suggests that he had no intent of ever acknowledging the sources UNLESS caught. Seems to me that if Terry didn't want to present original information in the areas where he used copied writing, maybe he should have had a "recommended reading" list in the first place. I for one would RATHER "go to the source." It seems to me that Pawprint WANTS to share their information and knowledge. After all, they do have a web site and go to the expense and trouble of publishing a newsletter (which I am on the mailing list for and think is great). They just don't want it re-used such as it has been here. What is really wrong with that?
