Not a problem. Love to share.

Hi, Would you please email me the updated list. My email address is lmyers@entergy.comI'll add it to the request list. I've updated the index and request list and grouped the recipes by restaurant as well as course categories so everything should be easier to find. I'll wait till tomorrow to hear from lynninpa and then I'll (hopefully) get a mod help to edit both posts.
We have 4 requests for the Concourse Steakhouse which is slated to be closed - so if anyone is going there it would be wonderful if you could ask for these recipes. When posting a requested recipe could we perhaps quote the original request post? It makes it easier to keep the request list updated.![]()
I sent an e-mail to Admin to see if there was anything they could do, no answer yet. I'm very concerned.
hmm..no coconut flan recipe yet. I responded to the address given but they haven't answered me yet.
. For some of my requests, I had to write a couple times, and I made sure to mention the name of the server and/or general manager who promised me the recipe when I was there.Quite honestly, I am surprised that the DIS board continues to allow this thread, as there is blatant copyright infringement taking place here on a daily basis. There are recipes being extracted from the various Disney cookbooks that are posted here - it doesn't matter whether acknowledgement is given as to their source - they are the property of Disney, and rather than just acknowledgement of source, you need formal written permission to post each and every one of them. And it is Disney's right, if they so choose, to receive financial compensation for each such posting. Barring that, the posters who are posting Disney recipes without specific written permission and the DIS are setting themselves up for a very expensive bump in the road. The same goes for the recipes that are sent by Disney - unless permission was asked to post to this group (and granted in writing), they are given by Disney for the personal use of the requestor. You don't need to do Disney a favor by cutting down on the requests - they add recipes to cook books based on requests received. Having been on the receiving end of a cease and desist order for alleged copyright violation, the financial threat can be very sobering. As for me - I have neither posted here, used any other recipes here, and I think I'll exit before the frying pan heats up.The Admin I was told to contact is Pumbaa_ who is one of the Mods for the Restaurant section. I PMed him/her last Monday saying I had an updated index and request list and it just needed to be pasted over the exisiting one. There were concerns expressed about copyright infringement ....

Anyway, if anybody would like to contact a Mod you can let them know that Pumbaa_ has been informed about our situation on this thread and I'm really hoping we'll get some help from a Mod this week. In the mean time I'm e-mailing the Index and Request list to anyone who wants it.
Maybe we could just post updated info here as a new post. Then people would just reference the new page for indexing and request lists. Just a thought.

What you in for Mac? Grand Theft Auto, you? Recipe swapping. Nabbed me making a chocolate souffle. I was cooked. They caught me with the chocolate and vanilla sauce running down my chin.![]()

Good one!!! Did you have a bad day today??? Or year?I am not sure what you are looking for admin to do regarding a poster who has stopped posting![]()
People leave internet boards for many reasons. PC's go down, work gets busy, illness comes into play, there are so many reasons. Unless and until Amy returns, I am not sure what you are looking for from the site webmasters.
Regarding modifying someone else's posts, we try not to do that. Given a situation like this, well it is unique and the mods on this board have not run into it before. We are discussing what is the best way to handle it and weighing the options. Once we decide what approach we want to take, we will share with everyone.
Thank you for your patience,
Restaurant Board Mods
FYI, recipes are not copyrighted material; the printed books compiling recipes are copyrighted against reproduction of their publication for sale. If the posters were scanning actual pages then posting the copyrighted pages for profit from a published book, Disney would then have a course of action much like the action taken against Kinko's in the late 80's for copying sections of published text books, and selling them to students under the description of "course works". Since the recipes here are neither being sold or scanned copies from the actual printed, copyrighted work there should be no problem. Also, this posting of the recipes would fall under fair use waivers that apply to copying published works; this protection is written into copyright law so people do not have to fear legal action for limited, non-money making use of printed material.
Do not fear my friends here on the Recipe Thread..........we are not in danger of legal action for our trading of recipes. The thought is absolutely ridiculous.
Oh yeah Abby's Dad, does it really bother you we are here trading recipes??? It seems you have some ought against this thread. Feel free to use the recipes and share some of your own.....we will not report you to the feds.

Please don't. We are discussing a different solution and just need to come to a decision.
Also, please do not be rude or sarcastic to other posters.
thank you,
But what I stated about copyright law is accurate.Please don't. We are discussing a different solution and just need to come to a decision.
Also, please do not be rude or sarcastic to other posters.
thank you,
Freeze, put your hands up and step away from the recipe!!!!
