[QUOTE="Malika, post: 555906, member: 11227"] Sorry, I realise this is pretty complex and not very clear. The issue is not my using his article or not. He has said he doesn't want me to edit that and of course I must respect that. That is black and white, yes. What is not black and white is whether someone has the right to summarise someone's ideas and acknowledge the originator of those ideas as the source. In fact I suspect that that is a very cloudy area that good lawyers could argue either way. To be honest, I don't know whether my fear that this man would actually go as far as suing us is just me being anxious and paranoid in response to his unpleasant tone. He is never said anything like that and it would seem a curious act of betrayal for him to do so. But I prefer to play it safe. [/QUOTE]
