You tell them Anno !

Besides....growing certain shrooms are illegal...if you want to get all legal now.
geezzzz

So what if Anno posts a few excerpts from Stamet's book.
Like they are going to try and take him to court....lolz

Keep quoting the guy....Hell this site probably sells more books for the guy than a average advertisement does....just by word of mouth.

I wouldn't have known about the damn book if i hadn't seen posts about it in here.

Oh and yes Anno's quotes and talking about the The Mushroom Cultivator by Paul Stamets and J.S Chilton....is the reason i bought one....lolz

I'd like to see a poll of how many people have bought the book cause of seeing posts about it here in the Shroomery.....lolz
Most of the polls in the poll forum are just plain stupid.....just my opinion.

Since when were we discussing morals?


I was simply speaking off the legal aspects..

In that case your morals are your opinion.

I decided to start a poll on the book The Mushroom Cultivator by Paul Stamets and J.S Chilton.

I?d like to hear how the memebers of the OMC (Online Mushroom Community) first learned about the book and what made them to buy it, and if the buying decision was or will be dependant on the amount and detail of information one knew about the book.

The Mushroom Cultivator Users Poll
I bought the book after I read excerpts and comments about it in the OMC
I bought the book without knowing more about it
I don?t own it yet but I might buy it after I read excerpts of it
I don?t own it yet but I would have bought it anyway
Posting excerpts of copyrighted material is theft and doesn?t influence the buying decision



Votes accepted from (12/31/69 05:00 PM) to (No end specified)

You should have added an option of already reading some excerpts and planning on buying it at a future time. This is the one I would choose.

Well in a sense, but I have already read excerpts and I have been convinced for some time that I wanted it. Just haven't got around to it.

Anno, I don't know what you're talking about...Maybe I misinterpreted what you said...but It's completely legal to quote any information that is public, as long as the author is cited(at least in the US-I don't know how Europe works). It is illegal to take the author's words and consider them yours. This is known as plagerism, which is has stiff penalties in the US.

Yeh, plagerism laws are a bit wierd...


I think if you are displaying info from a book for public use (like this forum)
Then it is technically illegal, because if it was Ok to copy down someone elses work as long as you cited it.. heh authors would lose money

Anyways, I am not going to talk about this anymore, pretty pointless.

I think Stamets would encourage the posting of his information on this message board.
It is after all, the Bible of Mushroom Cultivation.. and posting his methods only benefits everyone.
Furthermore, it is a win/win scenario because the newbie cultivator is able to get a glimpse of insight into the master's mind, which only encourages them to BUY the book and have it all.

Hell, its free advertising for Stamets.

Well, you can DEFINITELY take chunks out, no doubt about that. I suppose the question is, how large of a chunk?

Yea, the only question is, how long can a quote be to still be valid as a quote.
Otherwise I could quote the whole book....

you can quote the whole book as long as you give proper credit to the author. citation is not illegal. you did not break any copyright laws. copyright laws protect the author from someone stealing his work without giving credit to him.
