their inputs on a web site.  We ought to be working within the spirit 
of the law, not just the letter, especially when we're trying to work 
together as some sort of electronically enhanced "group" on this 
list.  While it may not be necessary to ask permission to republish, 
it's certainly a very appropriate thing for "friends" to to do with

In the year+ I've been on the list, what has impressed me most about the
people here, even more than their helpfulness, is the civility with which
even disagreements are handled. There have been only one or two minor
squabbles since I've been here and they quickly subsided.

In that spirit, I don't really think there would be any copyright issues.
With this in mind, what makes sense to me, if I, or anyone else, collects a
part or all of a thread they want posted, do so and simply post an
additional message to the group indicating they have done so.

If anyone has any problem at all with any thread posted in the Paddlewise
section of my site, their part will removed with no questions asked.
Copyrights need not be invoked and no reason need be given.  If removal of
that part of the thread destroys the integrity or meaning of the thread,
then the whole thread will be removed.

I will post this thread, including this message, so we can refer back to it
in the future to validate the spirit in which it was held.

Thanx for your support.
