Article in Today's Washington Post
Mike,
Fair use, babe. We're all essentially researchers learning about orchids in this newsgroup. What's the difference in posting it here rather than the library having the article put into a circular file on orchids that everyone goes and reads? Or someone bringing it to an OS meeting and letting everyone read it? The medium is different - not the outcome. Furthermore, no one entity is charging everyone here a fee in order to read this newsgroup, so there is no one financially benefitting from the posting. (ps. we all pay some way or another to use the internet, which is different) I will go after people personally making money off of my photographs, but I constantly let orchid societies and researchers use my photographs in all kinds of places for educational uses. I can't tell if you were trolling for a fight or just pointing out what you thought was a discrepancy. I hope it's the latter, because I won't participate in the former. -Eric in SF www.orchidphotos.org "Michael Gerzog" wrote in message om... "Eric Hunt" wrote in message ... Anyone want to post it here for those of us who won't register at news sites? -Eric in SF You might want to re-read http://www.orchidphotos.org/photousepolicy.html before making such requests. Or did you assume Gene would of course request permission from the Post before copying it here? MG |
