I spoke with Jane Akre of Injuryboard.com who was calling to ask what
"personality rights" were.  It seems she's reusing a substantial number
of our images for her site.

She understands a bit about CC licensing (but didn't know the difference
between Wikimedia Commons and Creative Commons).  I pointed her in a few
directions.

It was a fairly good conversation overall.
