Re: HIT: Photocopying/Scanning Pictures and Copyright

["bookworm@lightspeed.net" <bookworm@LIGHTSPEED.NET>]

After reading the original hit and now this additional piece of information,
I would say that in spite of our efforts regarding copyright, there is not a
lot of agreement as to just how the law defines fair use. No wonder there is
such a lack of respect for the law by those we work with every day. You have
to be a lawyer.
