I wonder if we might make ourselves aware that posting information from another person's published works is an infringement on their copyright. An author has no control over what you do by private e-mail but I still think that it is not right to give away that person's work. I am an author myself and I would very much resent my book being used in this way. YOu might consider turning around the situation and thinking about it this way....you have spent 8 to 10 years compiling information and publishing at great expense the efforts of your labor then someone buys the book or books and makes it public information. This isn't right. This is food for thought. Consider carefully before you do it. Karen T. Ledford/Toccoa, Ga. "http://www.hartcom.net/~scv935/grey"
