Please pay very close attention to that "unless otherwise noted" above. Some of the material on this site was first published elsewhere, and is republished here by kind permission of the current rights-holders. In other words, it's either stuff that I've got permission to use, or stuff which I sold to someone under terms which allow me to use it here, but doesn't allow others to republish it. If in doubt, ask.
Although I'm using the most stringent CC license of the lot, if you want to repurpose or reuse this material for commercial purposes, email me and ask - in almost every circumstance, the answer will be "yes, just go ahead". But please ask first. You should email me here and I'll usually reply within 24 hours.
One thing that is explicitly NOT permitted is republishing my content, with or without attribution, while wrapping ads around it - otherwise known as scraper sites. Republishing whole posts and using them for commercial purposes is not fair use. Don't try and pretend it is. If you really want to repurpose whole posts and wrap ads around them, contact me and we'll do a deal.
Republishing or reuse of any of the material here without attribution will constitute infringement of my copyright, and I will get mediaeval on your ass. Attribution must include a link back to this site, and my name.
Note that none of this restricts your fair use rights. If you want to know what fair use is, the Wikipedia article is a good place to start. The Fair Use Network also has some good material, as does the EFF. If you want to know whether I think what you're doing is fair use, please ask - but don't forget that your fair use rights are independant of what I think. Unlike the AP, I don't believe I have the right to arbitrarily override the law.
