Don't take this the wrong way, but, that post needs an attribution. When I re-posted the same collection, I wrote "collected/formatted by Prime Time." Anything like that would do. PT did work to gather that. Posters who do work should get credit. Same as if a poster somewhere heard a radio discussion and posted his own rough transcript of it. That's work, which deserves credit. If we re-posted that rough transcript on another board without crediting the poster who did the work, another accidental and unintended effect is that our re-post looks like we're claiming to have done that work ourselves. No one means to do that, but it's an effect. So just always a good habit to attribute things, same way we do with posters who wrote an original post. It's different with articles obviously, but a collection like Prime Time's did there comes from several sources, and he did the work collecting it, which again he deserves credit for.

Not a huge problem, just a simple net courtesy issue.
