I'm not "damaged" really by what they did, it's just the idea that I *think* they did it knowing they were breaking the rules.
Loree, I've only had my work "stolen" once, and it was by an ezine that I also occassionally write for. They lifted three quarters of my article and placed it in their newsletter. They didn't even have the decency to acknowledge it was written by me.
I did tackle them about it, face to face, and they admitted what they'd done. No apology, nothing. So, I told them I was not happy, that plagiarism is a very dirty, nasty thing, and I certainly didn't expect it from them. I finally got an apology, and an assurance it won't happen again. Ever.
**Oh, and about Ralph's comments - totally, absolutely, WRONG!
