After a long phone call with one of the owners of the site, I want to make one last comment and then I'm done.

Tim apparently came up with the idea of posting original images along with cards, without ever having even seen my site, and with no idea that it existed. So I apologize for using my web-page as an example in defending Frank's statements as to Tim's failure to give credit to others. Eric apparently lost the original image that he sent me and felt fine in sending the collage from my website, and that is fine. Tim was unaware that the combined photo/T206 image came from someone else's website, and clipped off the card immediately. So, sorry about that Tim. As promised, I am sending a c.d. to one of the owners, with all original images that I can find, but I do not have most of the originals from my website - I had a hard-disc crash 6 years ago and lost everything that was not stored on the server or on discs. These were among the casualties, but I still have 30-40 others that haven't been 'collaged' yet.

As far as the stats and stuff on the new site, if I discovered for the first time that dogs bite, it might surprise you, but you can't fault me with presenting that information along with other qualities of dogs that were previously unknown to anyone (new dog discoveries), and you can't expect me to try to go find the first person ever bitten by a dog, so that I can give them credit.

(I, too, like applesauce. My gf's father makes it from trees in his backyard, and sends me a container each Christmas.)
