Default urg on GardenSAlley.com (was Weed free garden anyone?)

I have just taken a look at GardenAlley dotcom. Like gardenbanter,it's
a website which acquires posts from urg to populate its website. But
there
the similarity ends.

Unlike gardenbaneter, Garden alley makes no mention of usenet m
uk.rec.gardening, or the fact the material comes from elsewhere. They
have
in fact renamed urg's content

"Gardening in the UK- yet another gardening in the United Kingdom forum"


In which case it's a good thing that the weekly "Welcome" message states
clearly that this is uk.rec.gardening. Maybe I'll alter the intro to make
it even clearer! ;-)


This is bad! It will make people think twice before posting to this and
other Newsgroups. I wonder if putting a legal property rights line on ones
signature will allow us to sue these thieving people? Could be a good
earner.
