I'm upset with dishonesty and injustice. Do you KNOW that the original  
posting on the Groo page was "without permission"? Did you read the FAQs on the 
 _www.copyright.gov_ (http://www.copyright.gov)  website? Quoting  portions 
of a work is allowed. The seller copied an article, written by somebody  
else, in its entirety, without even crediting his source. Somebody did  that 
with one of Mark's blog posts, if I remember correctly... and he was not  
pleased.
 
More to the point-- why are YOU so upset with the idea (and law) that  
permission is required before taking and/or using somebody else's property?
