Seriously, was it really warranted to announce the formal ignoring of someone? Are we in grade school? I happened to be reading this thread because I was (and still am) interested in the subject matter, particularly the legal aspects of honoring US copyright law whilst involved in an international business relationship, and then I see this apparently coordinated attack against Ken, who, for the record I hold no special allegiance to. And besides, the comment 'nobody cares' is not only arrogant and presumptuous, but downright nasty. Guess what, I care, hence my response to the thread. What do you care if somebody is hawking batcrap or trying to pimp out sister-in-laws? What difference does it really make to you? Ignore them. Ignore me. Who made you (Donovan) and/or Alain or anybody the lord of the list? Everybody: Heads up, I plan to continue to hold a discussion about Ken and his outsourcing here on the list so if you don't want to read it then please don't. Also, feel free to add my email to your spam lists. It's
