You may need to register with Discover Mag to get the whole article, but its free.

this post requires people to register with web sites
if you cannot post the information then the post should be removed.

maybe you could just describe what you read!

Thanks Paul, I did point that out.



Or you could ignore it, but not everyone might want to make that choice. Why deprive others of something, just because you have a gripe about it?



To provide all the information that one could get from the article would infringe copyright.

the below is from the web site you linked to.
it seems that there would be no copyright infringement
if the submitter submitted work to the web site.

so you should be covered by the terms of use on the web site,



if the article is linked from another website that holds
a copyright notice then that might be construed as copyright infringement , but only in that case.

given that the article belongs to the submitter that is.



I could ignore it and I am ignoring it.
plus , its not important that I have a gripe about it or not , whats important is that the web site requires you to register with a e-mail address I presume , and registering with web sites leads to spam in your inbox.

why else would the web site require one to register to simply
view the articles contained on the website?

there must be some type of advertising somewhere in
the mix.

Paul, I acknowledge your apparent desire to seize with enthusiasm any opportunity to whinge pathetically. However, although I may occasionally, inadvertently, provide you such an opportunity, I must point out that I have no interest in encouraging any protracted exchange of banality.

I ask you to understand that although it is my policy to respond to all posts directed to me, it may occasionally be necessary to ignore such posts in the interests of maintaining the higher ideals of the forum.

eureka!

I found a web site that allows one to bypass registering using
another web site , so if anyone really cares about reading about
what you posted but they really don't want to divulge privacy information , they can use the web site to get user names and passwords in order to view the web site's article.

heres the link for instructions on how to use bugmenot.

I personally don't care about reading the article so I didn't try it to see if it works.

platitude's to me.
