"collect all the articles into a book and sell them..."

Not too funny; I seriously thought about collecting all of the recipes
from net.cooks for a year, cleaning them up, writing an explanation,
and publishing--net addresses and all.  I figure the novelty alone
would sell enough copies to pay publishing costs and profit...but
wait!  A lot of those recipes are *copied* from extant cook books, and
only some are acknowledged; I'd have to certainly contact the
publishers of those (as the original submitters had not).  And, truly,
is the net public domain, so that I wouldn't have to get permission
from everyone I could contact to publish their recipe?  How about
names--do I credit them, or is publishing their name (and net address)
going to get me into trouble??

I've got all the recipes.  I decided not to do it.  Call me lazy, call
me coward...
