[HPFGU-OTChatter] What's Leaky up to? (was Re: Prayers For Lexicon Steve)

[Lee]:
If, in indisputable fact, Steve did infringe on her copyright, then I would
support her efforts.  However, from all I can see, he did not and, IMHO, the
suit is a desperate one.  How many other books have been written to which
others than their authors have created compendiums, encyclopedias, and other
explanatories?  Besides the Bible for which there are a number of
dictionaries and concordances, I can think of Star Trek, and I believe there
are such for The Hobbit and LOTR as well as the Narnia Books and the Prydane
books. (I know I've seen refs but haven't seen the actual materials.)

I'd like to support her, but I just don't see that any law has been truly
broken as yet.  Actually, I pray for a gentling of her heart and that,
maybe, she might collaborate and aid Steve in his endeavor.  Now, that would
be something indeed!

Cheers,

Lee
