I've been following this and just have to chime in (sorry). I can
understand that there are only so many ways you can design a resume and
sites are bound to look similar, but if you look at the message that Michael
sent to this list on 1/11/2001 and compare it to the message that Ramon sent
on 1/22/2001, you will see that it is probably 95% the same message with
complete sentences and phrases that are exactly the same.
A few examples (in both messages):
"Highly skilled professional web developer, experienced in planning,
designing, implementing, and managing internet/intranet/extranet/ecommerce
projects on different scales, through all phases of development."
and
"Well versed on all major operating systems (workstation and server), web
servers, and browsers."
"My resume, along with examples of my work, and contact information, can be
found at my website..."
I'm sure people on this list have very similar skill sets, but it seems very
obvious to me that Ramon took Michael's message and changed a few things.
It's not much of a stretch to think he did the same with Michael's site.
I'd be a little upset if I was Michael also. My 2 cents...
