I'm trying to herd [[en:Xenu]] through Featured Articled Candidates. It's getting general support and many useful suggestions have been made. One was that if the thing about Hubbard's handwriting is mentioned, a scan of at least that word should be put in.
So I've put the scan in as fair use for academic research purposes. Which it blatantly is. And the full scanned page has been on Dave Touretzky's site on the subject (http://www-2.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/OTIII/) for nine years without a legal threat. However, the Church of Scientology has threatened others in the past.
I'm not keen to indulge in copyright paranoia - the tiny page fragment in question is OBVIOUS fair use in a encyclopedia, of all places - but thought it would be appropriate to at least mention it to the Foundation. Particularly as Clearwater is just down the road from St.Petersburg in Florida ;-)
