You do not have my authorized use of this poem. Deleting this poem should be a simple matter by accessing your meta tags. It appears your site deliberately zeroed in on my works because your link appeared next to my name on all search engines. Any words that I personally posted to your site should also be deleted. As of April 19, 2003 you do not have my permission to display any postings with my name or any written works that are in your system. You also post on your site that you respect copyrights, if this is true, then respect mine and take the material out of your system. I don't think I can be more clear then this. You seem uncooperative on a situation that's easily remedied. It's in your hands to fix the situation and I suggest that you act immediately. The precise addresses were supplied to you in my letter which you hans bernhard as an attachment. sincerely....ken madden -----Original Message----- From: Alvar Freude To: madden Cc: info@a-blast.org Date: Thursday, April 24, 2003 3:47 PM Subject: Re: remove >Mr. Madden, > >If you keep at your opinion, please go ahead and accuse the person that has used your work to supply it into the Assoziations-Blaster.
