Hi Kenneth,
I disagree with some of the points.
Its your view-point that I'm doing what you think I'm doing. For me its not.
While saying that whatever I say literature is far-fetched whatever I
say is a product
of years of trying to know & understand. So while it may not be
'creative' but it surely
is 'original',
There is also some history behind this stand of mine. On a forum, I
had written some
stuff some years ago, then that content got published with somebody
else attributed to it.
That time I came to know about creative commons. I also did take help
of the creative commons
mailing list to understand the ramifications of this. SInce after that
for 3 years now, have been
using the license for all my posts in various forums as well as
mailing lists. The idea is to share
the thoughts the way I want them to be shared. Is this such a criminal act?
