"They didn't just take a book back, they stole my work," he said. Apparently some authors' rights are more equal than others. ---Rsk ------------------------------------------- Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/247/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/247/ Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
