I think this is all much ado about nothing.  It's an informational
website and a non-profit organization.  Using it without crediting the
source may be tantamount to plagiarism, but I don't think anyone is
likely to be sued over it, nor are there any royalties involved in the
material.

Hi list . . 
 
With respect to the copyright rules, since you are a PTG member, and
supposedly the PTG wants to HELP its members, why not ask for ask
permission . . .As long as you are not
- passing something off as your own . . . or
- profiting from the copyrighted work without paying royalties . . .
The owner, in this case, PTG , would be , or should be inclined to grant
permission.
 
If not, then one wonders why bother to partake of the organization . .

There is actually a second problem copying things from the PTG website.
It's called copyright law. I wouldn't worry about the grammar police,
but rather the dudes in blue - or do you guys still have the mounties up
over thar?
 
Terry Farrell
The only problem with copying things from the PTG website, aiming for
legitimacy in the customers eyes, is that anyone can go to the site,
copy and give the same stuff.
(For grammar police, I know the punctuation, is probably wrong)
