[Wikipedia-l] Fair use

[Merritt L. Perkins]

I am confused by the discussions of,” Fair Use”.  What does the term
mean? What are they talking about?
If I describe an automobile as “ A motor vehicle for transporting
people."  you know that it is not an advertising sign or some kind of
computer program.  You can proceed to add more details.
Does” Fair Use” mean the use that a program is intended for; the use that
a person can properly make of a program?
What does the acronym GFDL stand for?
This was dictated with Dragon NaturallySpeaking 7 Preferred and read by
Jennifer.
