Legality aside, you will probably get a Very Bad reputation on the net
if you use Usenet articles in advertising without getting the explicit
permission of the people you're quoting.

Legality not aside, it's *probably* illegal to do it without permission:
since the U.S. signed the Berne Convention, everything has a copyright
unless it explicitly says otherwise.

This article has no copyright.
