Very interesting...I read an Associated Press version of that article a couple days ago; this one had a bit more detail. It's pretty refreshing that the author doesn't plan to sue Dylan's pants off. Hopefully Dylan will return the favor and come clean, at least include acknowledgement/thanks in future printings of the album's liner notes or something.
That's weird...you know you are tired when you read the title of this thread as "who is the thief on "hail to the thief"
