Lifted material...

Lifted material...

2006-11-15 by Ken Leonard

Hit "Delete" if you don't want to hear me grit my teeth (mostly 
because I am in an incredibly foul mood today (most days, actually))...

There is a large section on this page:

http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27492&PN=57

...about our little tape-replaying friends (scroll down a little to 
see it).  The person who posted it lifted material from various 
places.  I think I see stuff from Andy, maybe Frank's book, and maybe 
even Jerry K. (Pinder site).

The author of the post is asking for permission from me after the fact.

In case he lifted something from you but has not contacted you or 
doesn't have a suitable attribution, I have his e-mail address and 
will send him your contact information if you would like me to.

This is about as bad as my arm being sold on EBay last month...

...see the 2nd picture.  Fortunately nobody bid on it.  Man, what an insult.

There's a name for people like that.........
(I'm thinking of Googling "Harry Potter", see what I can come up with, and then maybe writing a novel myself).

Ken,
 
This doesn't look like your arm to me. It just looks like some shitty old  
synthesizer. I've seen photos of both of your arms. Are you sure you aren't  
mistaken?

Actually, I think I'd like to hear that.
There may be something there........
Do you think we could get a sample of it, or maybe a tape?
(That sound at the begining of Jimi Hendrix 's "Are you Experienced? " comes to mind....)

That's a bit cheeky, isn't it? Especially with all that 'Nice work, Erik!' 
stuff... Yeah, must've been difficult doing all that cut'n'pasting.

Please. Although he does mention our various websites at the end of the 
article.

You'd have been stuffed if someone had won it.

Rowling already did that. That Potter shite is about as original as an 
Oasis track.
