His writing has been recognized by the Japan Center for Conflict PreventionToo. Darn. Funny. This guy could fill an asylum by himself.

Who? Me? Uh, . . . no! Not even close, unless you are talking about the few times I have drinks when at certain restuarants that have bars.

“Googlurbation.”
Sounds like something they would have trouble with in River City.

Not only does he not have a leg to stand on, because he invites his readers to post to FR by giving them the tool and link to do so, this seems far more of an extortion attempt.

Excellent point, except I am not sure this dolt is smart enough to spell “extortion” much less attempt it.

He probably has to wait until the kids who know HTML get home from school.

We need to ban all blog pinping.
Often they just cut and paste the original [copyrighted] article. There is no way to completely rid yourself of the problem without banning blog pimping.

They were posting full text on their site, claiming fair use, and then posting an excerpt on FR with a link back to their blog site. Our moderators asked them to link to the original source if they were going to do that, and they refused.That's a common practice these days. I'm glad you are taking action.

Looking at his posts, all this guy seems to do is just copy articles from other sources.
Just wait until one of them comes down on him like a ton of bricks. He may claim ‘Fair Use’ and non-profit status, but he will end up spending tens of thousands of dollars in legal fees proving it.
I noticed several sources he ‘takes’ content from that are OCD about protecting their material including WSJ, NYT, and the Washington Post.

Hi Jim,
Did you ever expect to spend your day doing this, when you started this website during the Clinton years?
I got a quick question for you, is the favicon for freerepublic.com in the public domain, or does freerepublic llc retain copyrights? I’ll let you figure it out from there.

I thought the same thing. LOL.
