Folks,
Since I started this thread, I thought I might try to summarize what I've seen
or been sent so far on it. Your thoughts seem to distill into four, simple
rules for reusing information obtained through the List:

1. If you wish to send information posted on the List back to the List,
you need not get specific permission from the originator of the
information. (Information posted to the List is considered open to all
members of the List.)

2. If you wish to use information posted on the List in any other form
of publication, you must _first_ get permission from the originator of
the information.

3. If you wish to reuse in any way information sent to you directly in
response to a post to the List, you must _first_ obtain permission from
the originator of the information. (Information sent directly to you,
even in response to a List post, is not considered open to other members
of the List without permission.)

4. In all cases, you must properly attribute any reused information to
its originator.

Thanks to Arlen, Beverly, Jan, Eric, and all the others who contributed.
Presently, perhaps, people's posts wax perpetually protected.

Bob
