Harlon Ellison, who famously tried to sue AOL because someone posted his writing on usenet, who sued paramount over a star trek christmas tree decoration he beleived was his intellectual property, who sued 20th century fox for making a film about a "dystopian corporate future in which everyone is allotted a specific amount of time to live", who sued James Cameron because he though Terminator was too similar to an episode of a TV show he wrote in 1957, who posted a dead gopher to his publisher for printing his writing next to a cigarette advert... etc.

You think that Gaiman somehow stole a story from this man and somehow Ellison didn't bring it up even once during the 3 years he was friends with Gaiman while he wrote American Gods or the 17 years they were friends after it was published and until his death?
