Idle thought ...
I wonder about copyright and how it applies in this scenario. I would imagine that all posts are the "property" of TERB and TERB's owner(s). In this case, I suppose Fred owns all the posts here. I guess we also all have some rights to our own posts too.
So can a reporter quote our posts here without first getting written permission from TERB, Fred and the individual poster?
In the grand scheme of things it may not matter, but I wonder what the tenical legalities are? Somehow I don't think the Vancouver Sun reporter sought out that permission, but I could be mistaken.
