OK, Shambles, this is serious. We're talking big money here. My messages are my creation, and I have a right to them. Just as you as a poster have a right to your messages, I have a right to mine. That right does not extend to thread titles that show up as an index on the Forum Menu, but it does cover the text of messages.
You have ranted for years how about how the words of yourself and your "fellow posters" should be sacrosanct, and I agree with that. Well, MY words are sacrosanct, too; and I do not want you plagiarizing them any more. My fee for each quote is $100, payable in advance of any use of my words.
