Posted June 14, 199926 yr Hi Everyone,I would like to remind anyone wanting to use materials published by us toseek consent or approval before using our materials.Today, I walked into a bookstore and to my surprise, I found a few graphics/ illustrations from my website copied wholesale. I was very sad because, Iremembered, these were my hardwork which I spent quite alot of time.The well known author did not even asked me for my approval or consent andconveniently took my illustrations. This is truly theft of intellectualproperty rights. As I am investigating further, I have not put up thedetailed information on my website.Click here to see the reminder notice on Intellectual Property Rights:http://www.geomancy.net/copyright/intellect1.htmIf you do come across any more infringements, please let me know.Thanks in Advance!Cecil Lee

Posted June 16, 199926 yr Staff Dear Glyn,Thanks for your open support.Not sure whether to " cry " or to " laugh " because I have no intention ofbuying the `offending ' book. But really had no choice because I need togive it to my lawyer.Can I get a refund from the offending author? *JOKE*Yes, I need to take some action. If not, this author may get bolder andbolder. What next?Warmest Regards,Cecil Lee-----Original Message-----From: Listmanager To: Recipients of 'free-advice' suppressed suppressed>Date: Tuesday, June 15, 1999 10:49 AMSubject: Intellectual Property Rights Notice Quote From: "Glyn Foster" This message is sent from "free-advice" Mailing List.Cecil and RobertI hope that once you have sought legal advice and are permitted to do so,name the person who has committed this offence.I for one, shall then be careful not to purchase books from this author.Plagiarism is not tolerated and I hope you will follow this matter to itsultimate conclusion.Glyn.To reply: mailto:free-advice.1187@forum.geomancy.netTo start new topic: mailto:free-advice@forum.geomancy.netTo unsubscribe and participate only via Web Forum:1.
