Agreed. Freely given. Hence, if you get a penny it's a huge return on the investment.
Besides, if people stay from others on a list like this it's pretty quickly known. There are several people on the list that I don't bother to reply to because off list others have mentioned issue that develop. By and large I trust to the 'good' in people and let it be at that.

[was gmane.org ad naseum] Bernard, I think John's point (and mine, anyway) is that information on the forum is freely given. Some/most of us are professional writers who get paid for words; if we choose to give some away in this or other forumns, that's up to us. But they're still our words and we want them to be under our control as much as possible. I/we get upset when a site or individual steals, masssages, and presents the freely-given information to make a profit. Especially without letting me/us know. I don't have a problem accepting that you are willing to have others make a profit off your knowledge without $haring. But not all of us are that care free.
