	The subject article suggested that quoting an article
	verbatim in order to reply to it was a violation of
	applicable copyright laws.  This is obviously absurd
	-- it would essentially eliminate printed debate ( after
	all why should an author give permission for the use of
	text by someone who disagrees with him).  In fact, this
	sort of quote comes squarely in the domain of the "fair
	use" doctrine - upheld on frequent occasions in the
	context of reviews, editorials, etc.
