Doug, No, I haven't used any of your recipes (yet) and would not do so without your consent (or any other contributor). The purpose of which is the below e-mail to obtain such consent. I have not yet sent out the permission forms to the potential contributors. But without such signed agreement any recipes will not be used. Much to my and the potential audience's disappointment, if you do not want your recipes published. But I will abide by your wishes. Many of the Chile-Heads have expressed great interest in this book, it would be a shame to leave out some of the best recipes. Subject: Recipes Date: Tue, 23 Nov 1999 20:26:17 -0800 From: Doug Irvine <dougandmarie@home.com> Organization: Mountainview To: Jim DeLillo <jimdel@bellatlantic.net> Good evening, or more likely, morning....it would appear that you have a bunch of my original recipes in that list of yours, namely #s' 7,8,9,10,12,13,and is 45 a duplicate? In any event, I placed them on Chile Heads, as I did them, and I have never copy writed them, they are currently available from Rob Lusk's www.PepperFool.com who has placed all of my recipes that have been posted to the C-H list, after he obtained my permission to do so. They are also available to Mac owners from Robert Boston in his MacChef 2.0.3 version, available for download at MIT site. You may send me forms to: Doug Irvine 103-1680 Dufferin Crescent, Nanaimo BC Canada V9S 5N3 and I will look them over....Cheers, Doug in BC Doug Irvine wrote: > > Jim....I sincerely trust that you have NOT used any of the recipes that > I have posted to Chile-Heads, without my consent.
