I think it's just cultural diffusion. Cultural diffusion has been around for thousands of years. Yoga isn't owned by anyone. It can't be stolen. It's not owned. Doesn't even matter if it changes in the hands of an adopting culture. That happens naturally too. Not to mention we're one world more then ever before.

1907 was a bad year, economically-speaking, in the US. A run on the banks. . . .Some copper cartel wanted to drive metal prices down so they could buy up their major competitor. man, how some things never change. . .
I think anyone should be able to patent a culture, and collect royalties on anyone who wants to use it. But you should have a lawyer-tight definition of it, with diagrams, on file in the patent office, or some mega-cartel with scads of lawyerly help will just steal it anyway. . . . uhhhmmm. . . . yah, they'll steal it anyway no matter what, if there's a buck in it.

Appropriation can be pretty offensive at times-- the worst examples I can think of are ones pertaining to indigenous art, textiles, fashion, and just garments in general.

Thanks to the Arabs though we don't feel like committing suicide whenever we use arithmetic and don't have to use Roman numbers.

You're serious? Let's see one of these examples. Whatever they are, I have a feeling that they're nothing like participating in a free morning yoga class. Getting offended by that seems obscenely stupid to me.
well, obviously, Russia overshadows Canada at being north of the US.

It's not? How come if I head directly north from any point in the continental US I end up in Canada? (After an illegal border crossing, of course.)
