Yikes! Gmail strikes again. Sorry for that spam :| I was going to say: part of the FC ethos is that remixing is another form of creation (standing on the shoulders of giants, etc). I don't think that cut/copy/paste implies that remix work is simple and easy — girltalk is case in point. I know a lot of ppl here dislike his work, but it is a nice example of what cut/copy/paste can mean.
