The latter form, which is what I've seen on all those columns up to now, makes them look like blatant copyright violations (as if the person doing the posting is saying, "Ha ha ha, who needs permission? Ha ha ha"). By the way, when getting permissions to post materials to a network of 10's of 1000's of people, be sure to always go to the real copyright holder, which for most columns will be a distribution syndicate, not a particular local newspaper that happens to carry the column. --Lauren--
