Both KG and my mail were not directed at you, but at similiar articles by budding technical authors all twisted up about the detrimental effective of google and chrome to FLOSS and the universe in general.

You will be violating copyright law, besides chewing everybody's bandwidth. A link is sufficient - especially if it's your own blog. After all every author loves his own words.
