Re: sandbagging
Ya know, the whole thing about "stealing" ideas? Not quite so. It's a bit more more complicated than that. I wrote a story in the early 1990s about a dragon and a little girl where I mentally pictured Sean Connery as the "voice" of the dragon. Then along comes Dragonheart. Did they steal the idea? Of course not! That's just one of those blisteringly obvious things.GLENDA wrote:On msn.com today in the health section is a sandbag workout-They stole Reinhardt's idea only with sand!!!!!

If they "stole" it from anyone, it might have been Krista Scott-Dixon. Her Stumptuous website has some stuff about sandbags and how to use sand to make weights and heavy things to throw around.

I don't know. Seems different enough (and not nearly as much fun).
Anyway, as I point out on the shovelglove home page, there's plenty of historical precedent for shovelglove, it's not like I created it ex nihilo. And if shovelglove itself serves as precedent for other routines, amen. Some acknowledgment would be nice, but I don't think in this case it's warranted.
