Please besure to provide a link back to the original article. It's not only a good idea but it is also Choc's Law!

Erm... excuse me if I'm assuming too much here, but I think this may be posted for my benefit. Just to let you know, I've gotten in the habit of NOT linking to nytimes.com because I got sick of people telling me they would have to register to read the articles. Which is why I began cut/pasting them in the first place. I try to always provide the citation.

Just to clear this up, either a citation or a link is what is required. This should clear up any chance of non-attribution. What is to be avoided is simply posting large tracts text without comment in the hope of provoking a response.
If you feel that a press article is interesting enough to be reproduced here, at least tell us why! P.S. This is not directed at anyone in particular, so any passing paranoiacs should remain calm. ( I'll let you know when I'm really out to get you!) [ 10-03-2003, 02:33 PM: Message edited by: Mouse ]
