Luc, you keep asking this same question over again in one form or
another. What is so damn precious that you feel folks want to steal?

I will ask this question of you:

Q: How does the book publisher prevent someone from slapping their book
down on the Xerox machine and pressing the start button?

A: They really cannot!

If the content is solely yours add a copyright statement and forget it,
or /do not/ publish it on the web.

Take care,
