[Sam Spade]

Only links to other news sites are to be posted in the threads in this forum.  If you want to post your own commentary or paraphrase the article, feel free.  If you want to post a key sentence or line from the article, that's ok too, but no more.

I'm not going to read through every damn thread here, but I'm taking this pretty seriously, and any threads that post whole articles that are reported will be amended to the rules above.

Generally, I think copyright laws in the US are ridiculous, but I've seen other sites hit hard by them, and don't want it to happen here.

Consider this your first and last warning.

Very good idea, but what about under 20 posters who can't link sites, should you just give the site or some MLA bibliography... etc.
