That is interesting Dave.

I never thought of copyright issues when copying info from Websites.

I always felt that anyone who posted something original of theirs was in fact offering it into the public domain.

When I am cruising and have limited fast connections, I often quickly copy the text and photos, paste into Word and file for future study.

Never thought of that as being wrong!

Perhaps it only is…… if you make the mistake of reproducing it as I have done a couple of times on this Forum and Gord has pointed it out to me.

Where does one cross the line?
