It seems to me that the two referenced articles are in danger of being
caught in a temporal vortex or something.  They are attempting to restrict
the redistribution of themselves to allow only unrestricted distribution.
However, since they themselves are restricting their own distribution,
they are self-violating.  I think the authors of the two articles should
go sue themselves.  :-)

Copyright 1987 by Ronald W. Heiby, Redistribution to lay people impersonating
	laywers is just too bad.

P.S.  The three character sequence "(c)" has no legal standing whatsoever.
P.P.S.  I don't see how SIS can think they can restrict distribution of
articles originating on Usenet.  Digests of them, maybe.  But, not the
original public domain articles.
