Who kindly email to ask whether they can link to my content on my blog: The permissions for my site are expressed in (1) human readable form, (2) lawyer readable form, and (3) machine readable form in the Creative Commons license linked at the bottom of the page. The whole point of this is to enable people to build upon other peoples' work without signing a contract. (Here's a nice flash to make the point.) So please excuse me if in response to your request, all you get is a link back to this post. If you need express permission, then I'm sorry: CC-express is the best I will do, because a world that better expresses freedom is the space we are trying to build.

'The licensor permits others to copy, distribute, display, and perform the
work. In return, licensees must give the original author credit.'

Doesn't say anything about linking-to.

By entering the words in the box, you are also helping to digitize texts that were written before the computer age. The words that you see were taken directly from old texts that are being scanned and stored by the Internet Archive. This CAPTCHA helps proofread the books. If the sample is too hard to read, click the recycle button to get another two. A space between each word is required. And thanks for the comment and help.
