You have done a fantastic job. If it is not the newspaper complaining, why would anyone else have the right? The material is available in a public medium and you have always credited the source. You share it freely, not for gain. Not much different than a newspaper clipping service, but they charge. Earline, I hope you win this battle.

Someone is selling you a rotten bill of goods. As long as you credit your source, there is no earthly reason why you can't continue transcribing articles. The fact that people might still be alive should also have no bearing on your transcriptions. Connie Guardino Bellybutton Bears wrote: > You have done a fantastic job.
