Now, Lars, let's be nice.  I understand why you ask the question, mind
you.  I find Merritt to be rather amazing myself.

Merritt, please, you should not ask simple questions like this on the
list without taking the time to look up the answers yourself first.
If you have a question *about* the GFDL or fair use, after you've read
the relevant articles, that will of course be welcomed.

But this list has too much traffic as it is for us to have lots of
discussion of basic points.
