I am not an attorney, but I did sleep in a Holiday Inn last night! Actually, I didn't but my limited understanding is that almost anything published on this BB and others like it is safe from copyright violation under the "Fair Use" doctrine. As long as the use of photos or text etc is used as commentary, criticism, parody, news reporting, research, teaching, library archiving and scholarship. If you are not copying entire books or other productions and are using it as a means to facilitate discussion and education without deriving profit from the posting, than it is generally acceptable to post. I will watch to see what others have to say.
