Alright, somebody was talking about plagiarism the other day, and I mentioned that I usually don't bother unless someone uses one of my pieces for commercial purposes...one idiot has been sort of annoying me the last few years, using my poem "We Started As Friends" on his "being a good Mormon" site...he has ignored my requests, so I decided to fill out all the crap that Wordpress requires...let's see how this goes...this is what I got back from them earlier...and yeah, it's a lot of work...they make you fill out a fairly lengthy electronic form, and cite the copyright Nos. and the like...this is what it looks like...but, the poem is down from the offending site now, so yeah...progress...
