[History]

I shouldn't but I'm going to,,,,,,. Information that was obtained through hard work and put into a book to be purchased so as to obtain the information needs to be protected BUT,,,. With the internet and clubs and friends the information is spread so that it's almost available to everyone. If I had worked and found information and had books to sell I would not want it to be as easy for other people, I worked hard to obtain and compile it. I know a guy who was in the business of printing and selling forms for banks, technology put him out of business. Patents only last so long, I would think it's similar to copywrite but don't assume that. I do think authors should atleast get the credit when quoted. I guess it really depends on the individual because I see it both ways.
