For the PC Expo disk distribution I would like to use some of the articles that have been "liberated" on here. These include NYT and LAT articles as well as several other magazines and papers.

I have been told by a professor that as long as I label the diskettes as "For Educational Purposes" I can distribute these articles. Should I do so? I'd rather not get sued on this, so if there be a lawyer here, please advise...

(For those just tuning in, I and several other cypherpunks will be giving out free disks at PC Expo with PGP, other crypto software, and crypto articles as a mini anti-clipper/digital telephony campaign...

If you have time, why not ask the NYT and LAT for permission. I'll bet that they will be glad to grant it, but it will take a few weeks.
