copyright issues

["S. L . Lee" <sllee@asiawind.com>]

Dear Friends,

While some of you might not be aware of copyright, I have to remind you that
books, articles, webpages,...almost anything that is original, and is
claimed copyright should be quoted with a limit and cite the original
source. Normal use by quotation is probably 2-3 paragraphs.  You may
re-write, abridge sections, comment, or do something that includes your own
intellectual property for posting.  Whether the articles are commercial or
not, unless it declares no copyrights (government documentations usually
don't because they are paid for by taxpayers, but even some do).

After consulted with Yoon-Ngan Chung and at his request, I have removed the
Han Suyin book chapters.

Please read the following summary on US copyright laws:

It normally lasts for 50 years or more and is inheritable by heir.
