As most of you know I had an article copied, edited and ultimately posted at The Sporting News web site not long ago. The person who hijacked my article claimed the work to be his own and violated my copyright in doing so. At the time, I was mostly ignorant of the copyright laws and what my rights were. [link]

    Funny, looks exactly like a post I wrote a few weeks back. You'll be hearing from my team of attorneys, moondog.

      Funny is right Zoner. I originally posted that in FEBRUARY. If it looks like yours, then you'll be hearing from my attorneys.

    One last thing Zoner - I had four attorney's preview this article before I posted it, one of which ultimately linked to it in FEBRUARY.

    Here's the original link, note the date.

    Be advised you'd better not spread false rumors. I can back my claim up. Don't do anything foolish on this  and claim I did something I didn't do.

    I guess I'm just naive, here I took Zoner's comment for a joke.

      Phew. Me, too. Kind of feel like I signed up for Music Theory and stumbled into Advanced Physics by accident. Some kind of undercurrent happening here.
