Well, it is the truth, is it not? Why do people get a crab up their ass when
someone takes a FREE idea and makes a buck off it. Good for him and I've
never bought the book. So don't buy the book and shut up, ok. Find something
significant to bitch and complain about instead.

Like I said, because it's rude. It goes without saying that I'm not getting
paid for the friggin' reports. Even if it didn't, email has no legal effect,
so why not send something that just says "thanks a lot" instead of
something that sounds like it was crapped out by a lawyer? As for
"significant," it always astounds me how there's always someone
that gets a crab up their ass when someone bitches about something.

P.S., By the way, I've never heard "gets a crab up their ass" before. Very
picturesque. Thanks.
