Globberstack copying questions from StackoverflowStack Overflow word for word.

Hello,

I was recently researching a question I asked on stackoverflow in googleStack Overflow by using Google. I had typed in a query similiar to that of the question iI had posted on stackoverflowStack Overflow.

Surprise surprise, there was my question in googleGoogle, 5five search results down. The only problem was that this question was hosted on globberstack.com.

The question was posted by 'topdog''topdog,' who has posted over 18531 questions. It was word for word my question, even including my sign offsignoff as Tim.

Clearly, this has to beis a blatentblatant breach of copyright, and I am unsure if the stackoverflowStack Overflow developers and community are already aware of this.

Thanks,

Tim
