James,


Not sure if you were referring to Damian's original post or my reply,

but to set the record straight, the reason he generalized to the

"sub-continent" was because this is the second site of his that's been

stolen in its entirety by some person/company in that area (first India,

then Pakistan, I think).  Maybe he phrased it rather badly, and perhaps

my reply also sounded like I meant it in a general way--I didn't.  I

meant that the particular people who stole and posted his original work

and claimed it was their own were stupid and/or lazy--not the whole of

India and Pakistan, from which many of my best friends come!  Sorry for

the offense.


Helen
