Plagiarism and fanfic

Saw this in chinae's LJ and thought I'd pass it along, it is John Scalzi's comments on fanfic and the current plagiarism scandal. While I can understand his objection to someone trying to involve him I am not overly impressed by his other comments. I would have commented myself, but everyone else had already said what I wanted to say :).
