I'm sorry if I offended you with the information which I posted. It is a fact that many of the things posted on the Archives were downloaded and then sold for profit. I stated clearly that I did not know which book you were referring to, but that many e-books related to lace which are offered

Yes, I know that copyright infringement happens all the time. We deal with it constantly at the landmark I work for here in Seattle. We have to go after people so much for it that our lawyers have the basic forms filled out on a template in their computer! Where I got offended was the assumption

Hello all, I must admit that one could see this as an off-lace topic, but I for one, have been enlightened concerning the pros and cons of books versus media. It is all a part of lace to me. I live in an area that has no other lacer that I know of within a 50 minute drive of me without my

The problem here is you inferred something that I did not imply. I warned about a known practice. I did not make the assumption that the book in question was definitely one of those taken off the Professor's site, because in fact, you had not told us yet what book it was. But, as it happens,
