I just read this over at Lyle McDonald's blog.
Apparently Warp Speed Fat Loss, a new-ish product by Alwyn Cosgrove and Mike Roussell, liberally borrows from Lyle's 2003 book The Ultimate Diet 2.0. By "liberally borrows from", I mean "copied nearly word for word".

I'm not gonna comment any further, cause Lyle sums up most of it, but wow. That's all I can say.
And yet, I'm sure there will be plenty of people writing this off or "giving them the benefit of the doubt" even now. Why? Because they're big names?
How far does it have to go before you (meaning we) have enough of blatant, outright theft? This is the equivalent of a 4th grader stealing another kid's book report, and it has about the same quality.
Yet we gladly support these people, give them money, and hold them in high regard. That speaks volumes, to me.
