Just what we need to do is to get a paper with a lot of $$$ ready to sue
the net to shut us down!!

If I may suggest something very radical:  WHY DOESN'T SOMEONE WRITE THE
COPYWRITE HOLDER, EXPLAIN THE NET TO THEM (BRIEFLY) AND ASK PERMISSION
TO POST STUFF.  Then post their reply to the net and all will then know
if it is OK to post stuff from Dave Barry or Readers Digest or whatever.

Sheesh, are brain cells that scarce in net.joke readers?
