Over the last week I have visited the web pages at least 2 other Segway tour companies that have made recent changes to their web site.

What they have done is to copy verbatum language right off my site.You guys, why don't you use your own creativity instead of copying from me.

I just don't want people to think that I am copying from their site!

Originality is what stands us apart from each other. I'm flattered, but please do your own work and stop copying mine.

On the other hand, you're all welcome to copy my 'strict'safety standards...

Tom, while I rarely recommend utilizing draconian legislation such as this, you do have recourse as the copyright holder of such material. I recommend you do further research into this so that you are educated on the double-edged sword you are using, however the Digital Millenium Copyright Act gives you as an intellectual property owner the right to demand "takedown" of such content from those operators' sites. Contact the individual or organization listed on the site's WHOIS data, then contact their host/ISP for takedown.
