Good luck to you Mikey H - and good for you for speaking up.
Yeah, all things considered, it's a pretty cool answer.

Or maybe Teh System did it when you weren't looking...
no no, the drugs are working...first version was better. Gotta agree 100% with Rich of Observationz.

Academia Vs Art, it seems to me that this situation is indicative of the growing mire between the practical purpose of literature and the more heady ideologies fobbed onto me in lit class. Most people just want a good read, beyond that the average reader has scant concern for attribution of so called intellectual property.
This whole system seems designed without forethought or consideration towards the finiteness of language in practicable terms. There is an end point. That end point will be reached within the next 1000 years when the mass of appendix, references, bibliography, acknowledgments or whatever inevitably outweighs the body of the work itself.
The story teller/bard, legs splayed between the two schools of thought has become a pawn in an increasingly hazardous imperialist ownership battle.
Literature flails a long way behind music in this respect. Not intending to deflate your tyres Jolisa, this being a historical fiction and by the sounds of it a chronic case perpetrated by one who is ensconced within the system, just some thoughts on where I see the situation headed within an idiom that refuses to acknowledge the limitations of its palette.

Spooky. It wasn't me, but it may have been another moderator or even a glitch. Did you quote dubmugga's post?
No, but as I recall mine went something a little like this;
A justice system with no semblance of meaning. What after all is a car park for other than to collect money and provide parking space? If either of these points were relevant they would have confiscated the Hav's car about 10,000 fines ago. Instead we have the Government shirking responsibility on both counts:
"We need more DJs"
I was really planning on making post 994 a cracker instead of a lame rewrite of lameness.

i got deleted simply for posting near Dubmugga? It was on topic, I breached no supression, I know about no supression, what is this China?

I'm miffed my last post was deleted, I thought I had a reasonable point. Even more so that it's still kept in my post count.

Russell, can you please change the profile format so screen names can be changed?
But Zippy Gonzales is the best name ever.

Why pay the fine when you could instead increase your exposure as a DJ and get free parking for a couple of years? win-win
