However, I disclaim liability for purveying any copyrighted information without permission unknowingly because I have to, and will remove anything for which copyright protection is reasonably claimed. I think anybody who'd ask me to do this on a fan page is a royal dork, but I've met many such a dork-like entity in the past few years on the internet (sigh).
