Just got this email from qfac.com, DD's website.
Legally they don't have a leg to stand on, because this is a message board without any liability onto the site when it comes to content posted by the members, as such copyright laws or any other laws cannot affect me in any way.
However, due to respect for Dan Duchaine since he was one of the most admired people in this industry and someone I looked up to, I have removed the links to the newsletters.
I haven't been there in a long time, but I wonder if they have those newsletters loaded on their site so everyone can read them. If not, they should.
Below is the message from qfac.com:
