Georgios,
I really cannot believe that you actually posted the following paragraph:-
The mystery forum is was not in the competion here. There I have lots of information that is not mine. Arthur you are Right! The Atlantis theory is not mine. The Philosophy coordiantes are not mine. The legends are not mine, THe Tales are not mine. They are Global heritage belonging to everyone and no one have the right to Copywrite Native Americans, Aristotle, The ancient Greeks, Indians, nor the mythology and legends and the tales which are subject that some people still live with them.
There is a huge difference between using reference works and web sites to create your own ideas and express them and taking what others have created, verbatim.
Many researchers allow their work to be used for other research and to be used by schools and other educational institutions and they trust, just like when they publish a book, that others will respect their ownership of that work.
Just becauses something is on a web site, and just because it is on a subject that you think might make a good forum, it does not entitle or licence you to steal that work (which is part of the owners intellectual capital) and present it as your own.
It is called plagiarism!
I don't know what the legalities are in the American system but there must be laws against 'knowingly or unwittingly' publishing copywrite material without the owners consent.
I'd hate to see Adland destroyed by such stupidity.
The Old Coot
