i dint mean to wind you up john, nor did i think you wrote the web page 
that you linked to ... lot's of folk link to stuff on the web that they 
didn't write -- indeed, that's the way the web was designed to work

i'll repost your original mail in it's entirety, so there's no

STR pays for many, if not most, of the columns that are published here. These columns are the property of STR and the author, and re-publishing them on your site without permission from both is theft. If you do so, your site will be permanently shunned; STR will never link to anything on your site, and in the future may include the name of your site on a list of sites that have stolen columns from STR.

i guess not

I do however, think that people living in cities on the sea is a better 
idea than having the world's population culled through wars, famine and 
disease, as is happening through corporate greed at the moment.

sure, think i'll pack it in, and buy a dingy, take it down to l.a.

hey, ger, do you know any good fish recipes
