I thought plagerism only applied if the person was published & if the work was copy righted. Otherwise it is fair game. It would be like someone who visits the forums here & copies & pastes what we right for some reason. It is not plagerism. Plus she posted it in a blog everyone who has an internet connection can access & read with out payijng money to access the blog site.
