I would appreciate it if some kind soul could send me a copy of this book (notify me first so we don't have ten folks sending copies in, and wasting their time), because this book apparently uses vast tracts of my internet postings, which is a gross violation of my copyright. I've given permission to use my postings on other internet systems, but never to be used in a book or to be sold for profit.
Under my AOL agreement, and my CIS agreement, and the electronic copyright acts, these public postings are my express property and cannot be used without my permission.
This applies to magazines as well as books. To anyone else thinking of poaching -- and we had to deal with a UK publisher on this very issue lately, and won -- the copyright to this material will be vigorously protected, so don't even *think* about using it and selling my words for your profit.
These are freely provided, to fans, for their private and non-profit use, with my permission. NO permission is granted for anyone or anything else.
I fully intend to bring suit against Mr. Schuster for copyright infringement.

As noted in another thread, the situation has been resolved, and Mr. Schuster has agreed to remove the copyrighted material from all future copies of the book.
