<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=navy face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy'>Back to the issue, as PRJ suggests, citing
the source provides another protection which is that the information you get
from a particular source may be incorrect. For example, I have found that
the Steinway research department and Pierce do no always agree on the dates of
manufacture. If you are writing an appraisal it might be wise to cite the
source so that you are not held liable for providing incorrect information.
Also, since there are multiple sources for this type of information how would
you possibly determine a breach of copyright had occurred (even if the
information itself was copywrited—which I’m inclined to believe
from my legal resources that it is not).</span></font></p>

I agree with you. :-) We tend to keep things alive quite often on here by
rehashing them or holding grudges. When a topic is dead let it lie.
