I received an email solicitation -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 21, 2007 2:17 PM To: Teaching in the Psychological Sciences (TIPS) Subject: [tips] has anyone else been asked to buy random thoughts?
Louis: I've decided to keep this on list just because it's a serious matter if someone is downloading your material, binding and selling it without your knowledge. Has anyone else at all on this ever list been contacted by someone claiming to represent Louis, to purchase previous editions of random thoughts? Am I the only one? I know I am NOT making this up. Honestly and truly, it must be about 7 or 8 years ago now, when I first started reading and responding to them, someone contacted me by email with an opening along the lines of: It seems that you enjoy reading the random thoughts. There are quite a few prior ones you might not have seen. These are available bound and for purchase, and had contact information. Of course, I just deleted it, thinking what an affront. So, back to my query, has anyone else received such a request? Was it a practical joke? It certainly changed my opinion of Louis! I was too taken aback at the time to say anything, and honestly, it wasn't important enough, I hit the 'd' key and life went on, but the memory was imprinted forever.
