First you get people who gladly admit where they have stolen things from.

So I guess same person. Unless told otherwise, by Graham or JonK of Adit Publications I assume this is a complete infrinment of their copyright. Please don't let this thread degenerate into threats of violence. If they're an infringement of copyright then eBay does have procedures to deal with that. -- Half the lies you tell ain't true IP: 95.148.0.184

Graham, the gent who drew the maps, frequents this and other sites, as does the owner of the company that publishes the book they were copied from. Graham is very generous in sharing the amount of information he does, but flogging his maps is several steps too far. Mine exploration is a small community, and those people running businesses that cater for it (e.g. book publishers, authors, dvd production companies, gear suppliers) need our support. -- Half the lies you tell ain't true IP: 95.148.0.184 Edited: 15/02/2012 22:23:28 by SimonRL

As one of the publishers of the revised edition of the Cwmorthin book I would hate to see others making money where we failed to - although financial gain was never our motive. The purpose was to increase awareness of the mine and the Slate Industry in general. We have never had an issue with people using the maps and copying the maps solely for research and exploration. I don't take the book underground and I wouldn't expect others to. IP: 86.151.128.155
