Giving out someone's email address is like giving out a phone number. And we all have caller ID automagically. If you think email addresses are something private, get a clue!! I could have found your email address given your name with out much of a problem if I really wanted to. A few quick data base searches on the news archives that this whole thing was from would have turned it up fast enough. I just didn't want to bother, and the person would have given it to me had he had it handy. You published your email address in a usenet article, you should expect it to get passed around! > and, as i pointed out in an earlier private message, a violation of ethics. Perhaps if there was such a thing as an ``unlisted'' email address, yes, but there ain't so nope, don't buy that one either. > I'm > far less concerned about what "some folks" will do with my messages that what > you *have* done.

When you send me a letter, that copy of that letter becomes MINE to do with as I wish. I could have published it in a newspaper if I desired to. And, what I did publish was my reply to it, my writting in that posting constitued some 80% of the content with me ``quoting and attributing'' where I had quoted you as reference material. I clearly own the copyright on that, which by Berne convintion is mine and I can do with it as I wish. Also if you don't want your email to fall under these conditions you must put a header on it clearly stating so. Again, get a clue!!! > > Second, i have never made any "postings" on this matter. *All* my > correspondence > regarding this issue has been through *private* email.

Redistribution through any means prohibited > without expressed, written permission of the author. Won't hold up in court I am afraid, since it was redistributed electronically and probly no less than 20 copies made to get to me. Also you really should read copyright law, you left out at least 1 important requirement, location. And (C) is not an accepted legal replacement for the lower case ``c'' inclosed by a circle, just use the written word, no need for the redundant and meaningless since it is not correct (C). Gee.. and no response on violation of Intel Corporate Security Polices, I thought for sure you would have tried to defend yourself on that one :-). -- Rod Grimes rgrimes@gndrsh.aac.dev.com Accurate Automation Company Reliable computers for FreeBSD
