> As you can see in his request to you to stop he managed to
get his URL in.

Sorry for the self-promotion, but I was referring to the site so I included the URL.

> The opening page has 4 advertisers.

The whole site only has four paid advertisers. The rest are banner exchanges and a few clickthrough networks. The mining markets have been very difficult and I'm just barely able to keep the site online - definitely not getting rich ;)

> So, Bob just got how many referrals from that post to you?

Full disclosure: just checked my site statistics, got five (5) referrals

> I think getting snippets from these kind of pages is good
for all.

I agree, but was surpised to see a copy of the entire PGM page. No reason to visit the site if the whole page is posted.

> Bob's slightly accusation post to you has NOT changed my
view of you and don't let it think others now feel different
about you neither.
In fact,
it might have put some off from going to his site......

I must work on my diplomatic skills. I probably should have emailed instead of replying to a public post. My first comments were a little too harsh and I later told Chuck in email "I wish you would have referred to my site instead of copying it, but I'm somewhat reasonable and am not going to worry about it. No need to make a major issue out of it."

Sorry for the intrusion, I'll let you folks get back to the GPGI discussions.
