Norm,

Another MDospreyer used the term "piracy" -- not me -- I was just replying
to their post. I do agree with you that common courtesy should prompt
someone using a post or posts to ask if it were okay. I post to another
(non-bird) list and am sometimes asked if my emails can be put on one
web-site or another...

However, and I think anyone involved with the 'net will agree, never think
that posts are private or read only by those to whom they are intended. One
hopes that is the case, but...well...it's a wild world out there!
