A letter to the editor is by definition a message that is intended for publication, is it not? Can you see the distinction between that and, say, an email that I might send to you personally? > Do you find this site deeply offensive? > http://www.thespamletters.com/ If it's reposted spam emails, then no. Before you go screaming "double- standard", let me explain. A spammer's message isn't written as a private message, it's someone spraypainting grafitti on the side of a building. An email written from one individual to another, is very different than a spam message. > If I publish materials with no notice of copyright, can I really expect > the copyright to be respected? You should be able to, yes. Are there people out there who have no regard for intellectual ownership? Just go try to download something that's copyrighted, and you tell me... Dave Hinz
