Three cheers to Prof. Ochoa's remarks. The most discouraging messages I read on this list are from librarians who constantly say that Fair Use is too risky so they never consider it. Librarians will
either use Fair Use or most certainly lose it. It seems very rare to me to have anyone actually advocate for Fair Use on this list, which I consider to be extremely publisher friendly. Thanks Dr.
Ochoa. I'll try and add some support to your position in the future.

Aw, shucks. Actually, I try NOT to advocate, and to maintain a proper academic detachment. Sometimes I just can't help myself. But I have taken the copyright owners' side from time to time, so I hope I have preserved at least a modicum of objectivity.
As for the list being "publisher friendly," I imagine some of the publishers on the list think it is dominated by copyright anarchists. I guess if both sides think the list is one-sided, it must be reasonably well-balanced. :-)
