Re: CWH magazine rations article

If reprints are still available, you really should buy a reprint. In fairness to the publisher, the reason the article is available is because the publisher printed it, hoping to make a profit for his services. The more money he makes, the more likely he will be able to print more articles. And, from what we have heard, copying an entire article exceeds the reasonable use provision of the copyright law since, by copying it, you are relieved of the necessity to purchase the article/magazine (what we have heard and not a legal opinion).
So buy a reprint. After all, how much could it cost compared with some of the other expenses of the hobby.
