[AccessD] Martin and John write a book

If I weren't the author seeking permission (and since no one else is saying
it) I would say...

The whole point of this list is real developers building real systems,
asking for help solving real problems, where the answers are immediately
going to be taken and used in real (commercial) products.  So by answering a
question on this list you are giving implied consent to use the answer in
commercial systems.  

Hmmm.... I guess I just said it.

Martin and I are asking permission simply to avoid having the book tied up
in useless copyright infringement lawsuits, and we really will only publish
material where the "creator" gives us permission to do so.

Sorry bruce, but once it is published, you really do not have a say 
in the matter.  And, since this is a public forum, you really do not 
have much of a say in how anything posted here, by you or anyone else 
is used.  Welcome to the world of the Internet.
