Pretty much. A lot of the content that you see on websites, magazines, and even books come from unrecognized/uncredited sources. Today we see this a lot in flreelance writing and there are several sites online that still offer work for hire, these either offering flat fees or a few cents per word. In the end, however, these works will generally be owned by the end publisher of the work with the actual writer of the work never being realized. This is extremely common today and this same practice has been around for a long-long time. I recently sold an article under these same guidelines. I wrote the entire article but you'll never know that.

What articles...? Inquiring Minds wanna know!

cw, if you can locate a copy of "In the Clouds with a Maniac" I'd sure like to buy it . . . anything
about Clouds or Mountains is right up my alley.

I think we all know of another potential buyer, that is, if the mountain is next to the Interstate.
