You may have noticed that the BOS have launched some e-books on their 'supplies' site, including one that I have compiled called "Don't Fold Under Pressure", aimed at the younger/beginner folder. It appears that I need to credit one of the models to Robert Neale - at the end of the book there is a 'simple talking frog' that appears to be almost identical to one of his designs. I was shown it by a child when I was running an origami day for local Cub Scouts, so I included it on that basis. Does anyone know how to get in touch with Robert to throw myself on his mercy, ask for forgiveness and permission to continue using his design? I will remove it from the booklet otherwise. There may also be other models that need permission also - I've had the puppy and elephant pointed out to me as belonging to Keiji Kitamura, and I think I agree with the body of the puppy at least, though the head predates his in my opinion. I credited the elephant to Zsusanna Kriscovics and got her permission for it (although she did say it was similar to others). I got permission from everyone that I attributed to use their models and it was proof-read until people generally lost the will to live, but none of those people spotted anything. I guess I'm asking for people to download my book (it is free!) and check. Of course, that may be construed as wilfully inciting you all to breach Robert's copyright and therefore just compound my sins....
