 * It is not the copyvio that annoys me; it is your idleness. You do a copy-and-paste and think you have created a WP article. If you take the time to study style and then write a short article in your own words, you may find that it slides smoothly into WP. -- RHaworth 21:01, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Idleness
Actually it was not idleness on my part. I have placed what is hopefully a benign statement on the page which I will perhaps expand on at a later time. My intention was to provide a history (my words from our site) to a wider audience. I do understand the need to prevent copy/pasting in order to protect copyrights, etc. Thanks to all.
