Is it legal? Ethical ? to copy a post from one form and post it on another? I would like to copy jtan's post about the Children's Museum and post it on Trip Advisor. I'm not sure if that is proper.

I think, though, if it is properly attributed, there's no ethical issue with respect to reposting something put on a public forum. And, no, it's not copyrighted.

If i get something from one forum and post to another, for example from here and post it on TalkPa.net, I will let the member know that I am doing that as a courtesy.
i might PM longnecker and say this is a great post and I borrowed it to start a conversation on Talkpa. I'll also mention over there that I took it from here.

Yup, usually giving credit where it is due is all you need.

Since there certainly are different opinions I posted a link to the thread properly noting it is Talk Delaware.
