http://microscum.com/mmpafaq/ - For how Section 117 is applicable

For Section 107 - Fair Use:

"Any individual may reproduce a copyrighted work for a "fair use"; the
copyright owner does not possess the exclusive right to such a use." -

that they are irrelevant, and that they don't apply.

Stop playing games, and explain your opinions! I explained mine over and

them over the years!
