Re: Newsletter article re The List

I agree with Sue..

I often say things in this forum, that if taken out of context, would not have
the right meaning (hell, sometimes "in" context doesn't have the right meaning
<g>)

If it is a quote, all normal conventions should be followed.  There is no
reason to do otherwise, just because it is this type of forum.

I have been quoted several times, in STC newsletters and elsewhere.
In each instance, I've been contacted privately asking if a specific
post might be quoted. I havn't refused permission -- *yet* <g> --
and I generally request a copy of the publication in which I'm
being quoted.

This seems like a fair and comfortable solution to all concerned,
so I suggest that you follow this model.
