what someone should explain to him is that he should not post
thosands of words of copyrighted text to the newsgroups.
Giving a weblink to the Web reprint is sufficient, as would be
quoting just the text that supports his argument.
The work was available on the net and I simply made it available here...
That is copyright infringement to which you have just confessed.
it was not for personal financial benefit...
Legally, that is no defense.
simply the sharing of information that the author obviously thought
should be made available to as many people as possible.
Your claim of mindreading aside, please note that I am not
attacking you, merely pointing out that you are making yourself
legally vulnerable.
