"Kevin Faux" posting from kfaux{at}hotmail.com and k_faux_46{at}yahoo.com
posted a fragment of a story written by Cleve Johnson as his own work
on the Trekcreative list.
Below is the body of the post by Michael Gray making me aware of this situation.
When asked for an explanation "Kevin Faux" unsubscribed from the
list without comment. I have banned both his known e-mail addresses and
urge other moderators to do the same.

Now, unless Cleve is floating around posting parts of Providence as
"USS Magellan" then what we have here is a failure to be creative
and worse, someone who is blatantly plagiarizing.
I do hope that Mr. Kevin Faux can explain this. And don't worry, I'm
sending an e-mail to Cleve Johnson and asking him about this. I'm sure
he'll be less than happy with you "Mr. Faux." Me, I'm just
disgusted at anyone who would pass off someone else's writing as their own.
