Bill's absolutely right, though, about reposting in its entirety on a web
page -- it is a violation of copyright laws to do so. Making a hard copy
or a computer file copy for your own use, or quoting at any length in
discussions, etc. whether on the net or otherwise, is fair use and a
recognized exception.
