In the comments on one of Dean Esmay's posts about 'The Agonist' (no link for the plagiarist), someone calling himself Norm Jenson writes:
I'd like to see the screenshot of "Intellectual property is theft."
I'm sure he would. I wonder if this is the same Norm Jenson who registered http://www.pejmanpundit.com and related URLs, thereby forcing Pejman Yousefzadeh to find a new name (Pejmanesque) when he recently moved off BlogSpot? Even a right-winger like me will admit that there are cases in which property (intellectual or otherwise) is indeed theft -- morally, ethically, and often legally.

Then again, this is what genuinely pathetic people do when they don't have an argument to stand on, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised. And besides, I rather like the new name.
Posted by: Pejman Yousefzadeh on April 13, 2003 01:00 AMWhat you should have done is stay on Blogspot while changing your site name. Once N.J. had spent another $35 each to register www.pejmanesque.com, www.pejmanesque.org, and www.pejmanesque.net (and don't forget Niue), you could have changed the name again a few weeks later, and then again (sort of like Andrea Harris), eventually forcing him into bankruptcy, at which point you could have finally unveiled your unencumbered MT site.
