    3. Okay folks, This has gone far enough. This topic is closed ! Right now. Everyone knows what copyright means, and we all know that is is okay to look things up as a SKS ... and we all know too that in the real world friends lend each other their bike. We also know that it's not okay to copy or make money out of others' property ... and none of the contributors need to be reminded of these things, so I understand why some of them would feel insulted if this was suggested. Let's leave it at that ... this is a focused Conference of Australia History .. if you need to talk about copyright or any other arrangement regarding "sharing" stuff, don't do it here. I also note somewhere that somebody suggested that you can just unsubscribe and rejoin this Conference again ... you goota be kiidi' ... now I am the one who is insulted .... not so .. I monitor this list with a light hand, in the background ... I don't do the dirty washing in public ... but rest assured, if YOU get terminated from here, not only do you NOT come back, your execution will be swift and sure ... you will not be told ... but others will, and your name will be mud all over Australia and the Internet, as others have found to their chagrin. Let me just try this again, in case anyone has misunderstood .. THIS MATTER IS CLOSED .. if you need to talk between yourselves, go for it, if you would like to talk to me about my decision, just send me an email. Hey ... it's another great day in Australia ... I know, I got back this morning from a week in Jakarta ... let's get on with enjoying the Conference of Austalian History. Regards, john snelson listowner and moderator ...
