The Three Laws Of Consulting, via Alik Levin’s MSDN BLog
- “In spite of what your client may tell you, there’s always a problem.”
- “No Matter how it looks at first, it’s always a people problem.”

Stop stealing my blog posts…..
There has been some discussion recently on some DL’s here at Microsoft about sites that re-post blog posts without permission. I will call it what it is which is the theft of copyrighted materials for the purpose of monetary gain. I don’t like saying copyrighted because copyrights get a bad rap these days depending on who you speak to, but from the perspective that *I* sat down and *I* wrote the blog post, the work does belong to me.
