and pwnd it off as their own. Just thought I would post the link.

wow... that's blatant.

Now that is out right plagiarism! Leaves one wondering just how much has sifuphil stolen concerning his other material on his site. How about all of it!

I sent phil an e mail.

One more reason to never trust anyone that calls themselves "sifu."

ill show you sifu...

Someone has taken Tim's writing yet again:

Thanks Troy, I sent them an e mail.

No prob, just thought it looked awfully familiar when I was reading it.

I like the part on the bottom where it says "(This article comes from the rec.martial-arts FAQ and is printed with permission.
This article is authored by: William Breazeal, Mike Martelle)."

not sure what this rec.martial-arts thing is though....

Another one.

I suppose I should be flattered.

Doesn't anyone have the courtesy to ask permission to use another's work?

Courtesy in general is a dieing virtue! Apparently many have missed some of the basic lessons Martial arts should be teaching us beyond how to kick and punch!

...so is spelling.

I thought courtesy is a little bus from the airport to your hotel.

Well Mr Rogers what did I spell wrong?

My thoughts as well, they could at least site you as the original author. I mean if you are gonna go through the trouble of plaegerism, you might as well just come out and say who originally wrote it.

I noticed the one I found still has it up, have they responded back at all?

PS I enjoyed class on Tuesday, sorry I had to leave earlier but I didn't get home until almost eleven as is. That spiral throw/takedown you showed really helped with balance in the spin in dpc.
