Steelers, in your own words define plagiarism for me and one other member of this board. I am quite amazed at the audacity.

Plagerism is the taking of another's ideas or words and presenting them as your own.

It appears to me that someone has taken my ideas and EXACT DAYUM WORDS and are presenting them as their own.

why do people do that? Imitation is the best form of flattery, but to copy almost verbatim...

I put that letter out there for people to use and share with others. Most people do so and I am pleased.

Now I see my words on another blog, with no link back to my blog, nor any citation that this person did not write these words.

That shows a person with ZERO CLASS AND ZERO ORIGINALITY.

The original author should also be given credit or recognition for the work. At least that is my understanding.

Steelers, everyone ought to know that I have no ownership of this site, but the owner is a friend of mine.

I cannot believe that this chic won 100 dollars for a friggin replica of my blog (though I admit I have not completed mine) and for copying and pasting a letter that I literally spent 20 hours writing and rewriting.

Thanks Steelers. That is why it is there.

It is not there for people to copy and paste onto their own blogs and call it their own!

I don't recall meeting you before brownsugar, but I think I like you already.

Who did this chic think she would be fooling?
