Copyright Notice / Notes on Fair Use

I've had this website since 2014. I'm happy if you want to "borrow" information you found here - obviously, I've done the same with other sources that I believed were public domain (e.g. free clip art I got by Googling "free clip art" and whatever image I was seeking), and credited sources I've used. I tend not to use quotes, so I believe crediting the sources I've cited and paraphrased is enough.

If you actually own the rights to a source I've used (or you believe I've used), and you see a problem with the way I've used it, PLEASE let me know, and I'll do everything within reason to fix the problem (I'll gladly remove material that infringes your copyright, but I'm not going to take something down just because you don't like it, it covers the same material you covered on your site, makes fun of something you wrote, said, or did, etc.). 

Since I expect you to treat me fairly when I use your material for citation, research, parody, or other purposes, I'll treat YOU fairly. Feel free to cite anything I put on here as long as you:

                     (1) credit me (bonus points if you link to where you found it on this site); or
                     (2) paraphrase (you know, put it in your own words, so it's actually your own work).

I'm the nicest guy in the world about "fair use," as long as it's actually "fair," not "Hey, why write my own stuff when I can just copy this guy?" Does that sound okay to you? Great! If it doesn't, oh well - lawsuits (probably not from me) and bad karma await you...
