Juli Bahlinger and Shelley Britton, the girls in Fredericksburg, Texas, are plagiarists and imposters.         By their own admission they "discovered" imagigami in May, 2001. What they actually did in 2001, was to see  imagigami, the brainchild of Emanual Goldstein, at -- http://home.att.net/~sparklex/ where it's been since 1998, and Number One on any search engine.            Imitation is said to be the most sincere form of flattery, but what these people have done is something quite beyond imitation.  It has all the earmarks of a rip-off.             Please don't be fooled by this insipid Texas pseudo- sentimentality and by the trite piffle that is advertised as poetry and art for sale.  Rubbish!   These art wannabes are internet plagiarists.
