					<description>Oh, I should clear up:

The original image was part of a much larger image that included a house &amp;#38; other cats.

Micah did the same exact thing to only the top part of the image, otherwise he was infinitely more creative.

I did not invent eBay, but the auction process. Oh, shoes &amp;#38; boots.

IT'S VERY NICE TO MAKE EVERYBODY'S ACQUAINTANCE.</description>

					<description>Same as I wrote on CSTB:

Thing is, I didn’t find the image in a clip art book, I found it in a story book from the early 20s. It was a little bigger than the one on clipart.com. The image in question was just the head of the cat, which I silkscreened poorly making it off center. It was the background that threw me, the fact that the white ink behind the black was off center nearly identical to one of mine. So it looked more to me that he had taken MY “version” of the image, oh, I got all huffy. 

Really, what had happened is that he did the same exact thing WITH the same exact image. Well, I’m not going to say that he did a poor job at silkscreening it. 

Also, I invented the Coca-Cola logo, eBay, shoes, etc.</description>
