A Note About Postings By Others

I am beginning to issue invitations to folks to join this blog, so now might be a good time to make a statement regarding how comments by others might be used.

In general, assume that anything you post may be quoted (with proper attribution) or otherwise incorporated in the book I'm working on. If you do not wish to comment "on the record," please make sure this is clear in your post or else contact me directly in a private email: cbhistorians@yahoo.com

Keep in mind that anything posted will be publicly visible. For the record, it is understood that I am unable to compensate anyone for their information beyond crediting them in the resulting book.

It might be a good idea for posters to identify themselves in order to establish credibility when offering information.

And, obviously, the common sense rules of civility apply and I reserve the right to ban anyone who abuses this forum.

Now that this stuff is out of the way, let the interactions begin!
