Yes that's true. I'm so horrible.

Missing the attribution to AOPA. Even the subject line is a rip-off.
Yes, that's true. Suicide?

If you had prefaced your post with something like "Here are some useful
tips from an AOPA ePilot Training Tip e-mail" you wouldn't now have to be
defending your posting. If you had actually followed some of the links in
that e-mail you would have found valid internet links where readers could
find the full text.
If people here didn't **** and moan so much,
then maybe I'd have taken the time to do that.
Others
may simply take the information and use it for
aviation.
Anyone interested could join AOPA and get those e-mails. (I get them.) You
are not adding any value.
Or...someone just browsing through usenet might
actually see an aviation related post, and be glad
I bothered to put something here on topic.
It's not like there's an overwhelming load
of it being posted here anyway.
You've copied at least one post of mine in a way that made it appear as
your own, so don't go using that excuse to ride on the efforts of others.
Yes, and upon examination of that event, it
was both revealed and explanined that not only
was I not plagerizing you...in reality, it was a
compliment to you. Subsequent to that, the same
information came up again, and I went out of my
way to be sure you were given credit.
Quotation marks denote importation from another
source. Giving the authors name attributes who
wrote it. Providing a link...is an internet thing. Yes,
it's a courtesy, but that's the poster's choice. It
isn't a literature violation to omit it, because of
a little thing we call...search engines.
