My preference would be for an "executive summary" (or perhaps the opening paragraph) and a link. Of course, if you have comments about a particular portion of an article, quoting that is also good. The problems with pulling in the full text are (1) an awful lot of such articles is duplicative, and (2) in some (many?) cases doing so is a violation of copyright law and the terms of use of SI.

JMHO, of course, and no legal opinion.

Hlpinout...keep posting...same style...full viewpoints....its very helpful. By the time I finish reading your posts maybe the price of CPQ has moved up some.

I believe that virtually all information today is redundant. Its like every reporter or analyst is looking at what some else has written, modifies a sentence, moves a verb, and expells the same idea. Its a sign of the times.
