Other permission is almost always freely granted upon request because, hey, I'm a nice guy.
The particulars of how you may make use of most things found here without having to ask permission first can be found on this page, which describes the Creative Commons licenses I use. Failure to abide by these requests may result in totally unnecessary pique, frippery and general unpleasantness, so there's really no need to do that, now, is there?
The extent to which I have pre-arranged for readers to make use of my work, with relative freedom and at no cost, exceeds anything I have seen anywhere else by a quite a large margin, in part because I do not expect to make a lot of money through this site. It is a labor of love and of service to the "community," even if that community is geographically global. All financial costs are borne by me alone, although provision is made (through advertising) for anyone who would like to contribute toward those costs.
This weblog, such as it is, is owned, written and maintained by Obi-Wan, the pseudonym of a not-so-secret regular guy living in an ordinary town near Greenville, SC in the USA. Please try not to hold that against me too much ;o) . All opinions, examples of poor taste, etc. expressed in this blog, unless otherwise credited, are those of the author, and do not necessarily represent the opinions or taste of anyone else, including my employer, future or past employers, or anyone else with whom I am associated, although they should, of course.
Comments and emails are welcome, and become the property of Forward Biased Communications, with free use granted thereto for publication--but if you do NOT wish to have your email posted here, or simply wish anonymity, just let me know and I'll respect your wishes. 'Nuff said.
I will neither delete a comment merely because it disagrees with me nor edit it in a way that alters its author's plain meaning--but I will edit, moderate or delete comments that I judge to be overly obscene, abusive or off-topic. Unless I'm the one who hijacked the thread. (Heh.) After all, it IS my blog...although I respect my readers' intelligence, sensibilities, and opinions, and allow them considerable latitude when expressing themselves. Just try not to push the envelope too much, 'k?
