While you're sitting around catching up on things this weekend, could you please read this?

About Copyrights, and Fair use

and then read this-

Copyrights and Abuse of Service, We cheat, we lose

From Doc's Post

Quote

Do not repost copyrighted material without permission unless it can realistically be considered "fair use." Fair use means a brief snippet and a link with clear attribution to the source.

Cleaning up an offending post takes time. It's a whole lot easier me and the other moderators to just DELETE the whole darn thing and get on with life. Most of the other moderators have more patience about this stuff than I do and go ahead and fix the offending post. I on the other hand am well known to be crass, violent tempered and unpredictable with my anger. :angry:

Counselling has not helped and I refuse to take the prescribed medications.

So, could you please respect Doc's wishes and follow the rules about linking to copyrighted material?

TIA

"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around the banks will deprive the people of all property until their children wake-up homeless on the continent their fathers conquered."
