RE: Plagiarism?

It was obviously written by Steve, I just couldn't believe that the guy posting the script literally removed the copywriter, replaced Steve's name with his own then submitted it to a web site, which then went out in their newsletter. Pretty brash I thought and I wonder what could possibly be the motivation for such a thing.

Yea, and Steve is such a nice guy I'm fairly certain all they would have to do is ask and he'd give them permission to use it.
