Yeah, but he's not claiming them as his, and lets everyone know that he's
just scanning them. At first I liked the series, but then I realized that all the cats (and dogs) in these pictures were in a place where none of them were ever speutered, and were probably never taken to a vet (if there is even a vet on this Greek island where the pics were taken), and some did not look to be in the best of health. I started feeling sorry for them, whished I could go over there, round them all up and get them vetted and speutered, but I can't do that (monetarily speaking) and so I stopped looking at the pics. -- The ONE and ONLY lefthanded-pathetic-paranoid-psychotic-sarcastic-wiseass-ditzy former-blonde in Bloomington!

One should only post non-copyrighted photos to the binary groups! But then again, I know you know that. Jill wrote in message ... Norm wrote: Sometimes being *way* behind in reading has benefits. In the NYT Book Review 10/26/97 :-) there was a nice review of a cat photo book so I logged into Amazon and bought it for a coupla bucks. Someone here can tell me post-facto whether it's worth it I'm sure, heh. and there are more available used and remaindered for $3 or less. I *love* this book - it's well worth having. Of course, now that you've purchased that one, you'll have to get his other books, "Kittens in the Sun", "The Mediterranean Cat", "The Complete Cats in the Sun", and "Cats in Love" (the last one must be new, I haven't heard of it before). What's not to love about books full of gorgeous photographs of cats in Greece? Joyce |

Even giving credit is not enough without the author's express permission. He (she) is devaluing these photos by giving away for free what the author is trying to sell. Let's hope the author (and his lawyers) don't catch this guy or he's in *big* trouble with copyright infringement. Hugs, CatNipped |
