Before you start trying to hide behind the robes of Miss Liberty, you should be aware of some things: Firstly, you don't have the freedom to post the whole articles. That is not "fair use" under copyright laws. Secondly, free speech is not protected on pay-for-posting websites. in fact, you are violating at least two of the terms of use: you post more than 20 articles in 6 hours, and you violate copyright laws. Thirdly, if you stopped posting whole articles non-sequitur into random threads, willy-nilly, then at least one problem would disappear. Scott, you aren't even responding to people's posts, you are just clogging their threads with articles that don't have anything to do with what anyone said in the thread. Why don't you just respond to yourself, that would allow anyone that cared to still read "your" articles without having them muddy up other people's threads. How would you feel if you were talking to someone and this guy kept walking through the different conversational circles reading loudly from the newspaper without even trying to match the reading to the conversations? Wouldn't you think that was rude?
