The permission is NOT blanket permission -- it was ONLY Judi's permission for me to use the note for two specific things. That was clear to me, but in case anyone was confused here's a reminder: legally one would have to ask anyway to be sure and have her permission on file. If you want to ASK Judi IF you can use her post I'll send your letter on to Judi and she can get back in touch either on her own, or through me, or through Bill, whichever best suits her needs. Judi was giving permission for a SPECIFIC use, and the letter can NOT be reprinted without HER permission. This is the NORMAL internet legal approach; pieces which appear ARE THE PROPERTY OF THE WRITER AND ARE NOT IN THE PUBLIC REALM. Anyone who ignores this faces the risk of a lawsuit (and remember that those who may not have the finances to pay such a suit might instead be held to either public service time or perhaps even jail time, depending on the jurisdiction -- just a reminder to someone who badly misused something of mine about a year ago and who Steve and I refused permission to ever use anything of our's again and WERE willing to put into this situation if there wasn't compliance since it was blatent misuse with altered "quotes").
