Ok, before you point this out to me David, I just re-RTFM (list guidelines). So, according to US Copyright law, then you own the copyright on everything posted here, and Branston should be asking you? Can I forward messages to friends and associates (yes, and clients) without violating this? What about my little user group newsletter? (circulation varies from approx. 150 to 500).
