specifically noted otherwise, is licensed by Russ Savage under the
Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 United States License. This means you
may take texts, photos, bits of code, etc. covered by the license and
do with them as you wish as long as you provide credit and release the
new work under the same license. I’m doing this because when something
appears on my site, I’ve often done as much as I can with it and I’d
like to see what others might do with it.

As noted above, some exceptions:

  • All comments posted to this website from people other than
    myself. All comments on this site (except mine) are copyrighted by the
    original authors.
  • I occasionally excerpt passages from copyrighted articles or
    books in order to comment on or criticize them. In most cases, I’ve
    used the principle of fair use to determine what to excerpt, so if
    you’re interested in quoting works I’ve excerpted, you may want to go
    back to the original sources to make sure you’re alright regarding fair
    use.
  • Anything else I don’t have the right to give you permission to
    use.

With the above, keep in mind the principle of fair use when you’re
deciding if you can use something, regardless of copyright, CC license,
etc.

This is modeled after the excellent “some rights reserved” license used
