I’m probably the last person in the world to have any ideas stolen . . but sure enough someone took an eleiment.  
I did a flash intro for a site about 3+ years ago . . my flash skills suck but the intro worked, it was made up mostly of effect tutes from flashkit or some such site . . . . anyway they didn’t steal the Flash . . they stole the truss I built in Lightwave and the moving lights I did in swift 3d . . .  
this is the intro I did [here](http://www.graphicproduction.org/rip.html)

here is the rip:

How not funny is that . . . I called the guy on the phone and told him that he was a stupid as they come, not only did he steal an I dea from a company in the same line of work he is in, but from a company who is in the same city he is in . . . how frackin’ stupid can you be . . . . ?

My next question is what to do . . . I thought about defaming his company on my website . . . I have a 4 day turn around on google so anything i type on it will be indexed usually in about a week . . . all someone has to do is google his company name and my page will come up . . .

but i don’t know . . . any suggestions?
