When posting a blog, just post the entire thing (long as it’s not on the excerpt-only list, and few blogs are).

Larry, FR has long been a fair use site. I'm a very long-time FReeper. My ID shows '98 but that's only because of an ID glitch. I've actually been on here since '94 or '95.

I am asking that you not post my blogs in their entirety unless you have prior permission from me. possumjohn is a friend and thought what I wrote was worthy of posting here. I appreciate him posting an excerpt.

Anyway, no hard feelings and what's done is done, but I don't want people to begin to believe that I don't care about my intellectual property.

Thanks,

You joined before JR? Good trick!

Here's my FRiendly advice. If it's your own work, there is no issue with fair use. You are using FR, so give FR readers your full attention in return. Don't use FR AND be stingy with the content.

Folks will be MORE likely to give you hits if you are playing fair (i.e., sharing and contributing, not using).

All we are saying, is give your whole piece a chance!
