I appreciate your comment...Thank you, Guy and Gals. I appreciate your comment as usual.<br /><br />Robert, I understand Will's reasoning for the source checks, but in my case, these pieces were submitted as original thoughts with no quotes to source. I took it on faith from someone I've known for years that they were his writings. He, a former reporter for a local radio station and one who should know better, blatantly lied and put one over on me. To be frank, his writings that I know to be genuine read much like the pieces he submitted to me. A chance hitting of the right blog got him caught. As for me, lesson learned.Diogenes Sarcastica™ https://www.blogger.com/profile/06701909436152548138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108463567672522750.post-31757670838485214252011-10-11T18:24:04.406-05:002011-10-11T18:24:04.406-05:00DS, you have done exactly what I would expect from...DS, you have done exactly what I would expect from you, having posted comments on your site and having exchanged some emails with you. You are a standup guy who got caught up in circumstances that happen from time to time with bloggers.<br /><br />As you know, I provide op/ed content for Capitalist Preservation. Will Profit has, on occasion, asked me for my source or sources. I usually have at least three sources for every op/ed I write and often link with those sources.<br /><br />Will, as editor, will remind me, even when I quote someone, that excerpted quotes must be short with a link to the original source. Providing content, in its appropriate context for CP, has been an education in itself for me, a person not trained in journalism.<br /><br />Keep policing yourself as you have now and all will be well. I still enjoy viewing your site.Robert Janickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16991356257139797619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108463567672522750.post-79685879740941380452011-10-11T17:53:33.375-05:002011-10-11T17:53:33.375-05:00I agree with JSM's statement and will check th...I agree with JSM's statement and will check these blogs out also. <br />Thank Youstopsignhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14025731958009048624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5108463567672522750.post-41385317344377541892011-10-11T17:47:55.549-05:002011-10-11T17:47:55.549-05:00Our leaders could take lessons from you and Matthe...Our leaders could take lessons from you and Matthew on the art of working together to resolve issues.<br /><br />I applaud you both.<br /><br />Well done.JSMnoreply@blogger.com
