I received an email from someone claiming they had read my FAQ on a
CDROM compilation. I asked for further details but haven't received
a reply yet. Has anyone heard of such a publication? The copyright
notice on my FAQ specifically prohibits this, as do many other FAQ's.
If the comany doing this is making a profit, I think it's unfair to
have used our work without compensation. I wrote my FAQ to help
others, but if some jerk is just making a quick buck off it I'd like
a piece of the action. I know I'm going to receive hate mail for
this, but would anyone like to join up in a lawsuit against the
publisher? I dislike lawsuits in general because of the mindset our
society has adopted, but I think it's justified.

Chris
