We are a community of educators teaching and learning. I am sorry that this happened, but I know that when we make mistakes we usually learn much faster this way than if someone would have moderated it before publication. As DEN members, we truly try to understand the learning process and support eachother at every turn. I completely appreciate your willingness to allow this to pass as "lesson learned". I think Discovery does a great job in allowing us to share what we know and I think this will be a big lesson learned for many of us. Thank you Lee for saying that so eliquently.

Many of us are novice bloggers and are just figuring things out. I can imagine how humiliating this must be for her and rest assured, the lesson has been learned. We can all benefit from Heather's inappropriate action on her blog. Your reaction is justified and serves to help us all realize how serious many bloggers are about what they do (and rightfully so). Intellectual property is a serious thing and yet, such a difficult thing to protect. Legal action? What are the damages? In fact, I'd say it has not only generated good publicity for you, but has served as a good "community service" warning for all of us. The Discovery Educator Network is all about education, teaching and learning. That's what's happening right here, right now and like it or not, you've been pulled into it and at the same time you're making a positive impact on the blogging community, so... Let it go. Lesson learned. 'nuff said. Patrick,
