Hello Bob. First let me say that I appreciate and I'm sure all others who read this thread all the info you provide.
I really don't want to get involved in the question of copyrights mostly because I don't fully understand how the law applies. However I believe news stories etc.that are posted on SI. with the url link to original story and site are done only to be helpful to other readers of this thread.
And I think that all news sources know that whatever they put on the web has a good chance of being reposted and if url is provided free advertisement.

You said. " " I'm sure I have posted news releases in the past, and try my best to avoid doing it now. My comments were directed to no one person in particular, we all share responsibility for trying to obey the SI terms of use."
Several days ago someone asked for a list of mining companies that have made the switch to tech stocks
and you provided a list of some mining co.s that have done this. I made use of this list and I am sure others did as well.
I'm also sure this took some effort on your part thank you.

You posted a site where this list is available.
GOLDSHEET Mining Directory
Mining-to-Internet Conversions.
goldsheet.simplenet.com

At the bottom of this list is this.

You could have posted just the list of companies since it
was your own info but you chose to include the URL ?

Do you not want this page to be reposted by anyone else ?
And were you aware you were getting free advertisement
on the SI forum ?
I surly hope you keep posting on GPM and are not offended
Take care
Lorne
