[78-L] Composers who steal

[Taylor Bowie]

If I take money out of my left pocket and put it in my right one,  that 
isn't stealing,  cuz it's still my money!

So I guess we need to come up with another word for the actions of composers 
who "steal" from themselves.  I think I like what someone has already 
suggested..."recycling."
