Gary Armstrong;
Look, let's stop being so delicate about this; what do you know
and where does your information come from? Who is doing this
"downloading" and what publications are "useing" the articles? Exactly
where can these publications be found? I would like to read a few with
"used" articles, and I would like to read the author's name, with my own
eyes.
You have steered wide of the words "plagiarized" and "stolen"
here. I have writter more than a few times to this net. If there is a
chance that my words are being published elsewhere without my knowlege, I
want that changed.
(Am I just flattering myself here?...who cares!)
So, speak up, Gary! What are the details...and no soft soaping
this issue, either!
If the moderator wants, perhaps he will consider whether this
should be moved to nat-chat? (just an idea... because I, for one, will be
responding to this again, soon!)
John

I think it would be best to move the NAT-EDU and NATIVE-L discussions
on this subject to NATCHAT, so that we don't lose the focus of either
of these lists. If anyone wants to discuss this subject, please send
in a subscription request to NATCHAT by sending a message to the address
"listserv@tamvm1.tamu.edu" containing "subscribe natchat Your Name"
