Thank you Tinhopper,

It sounds like you still harbour some bitterness at all those little lunches the big girls stole from you.

I'm glad you found infoseeker interesting. Personally, the only real lesson I draw from it is how not to treat your employees. The challenge I have always found with employees is how to get the best from them. The engineer who wrote the original seems to have been quite alienated from his workers. No wonder he was considering closing up shop.

The fact remains Tinhopper, that plagiarism is theft. It would have been easy for infoseeker to acknowledge from the outset, that he was reposting an email of unknown origin. This would have been the honest thing to do.

I need to spend a great deal of money protecting my intellectual property. I freely acknowledge that I am hypersensitive about the issue.
