- I think a good idea might be for ClariNet to start adding headers or
- footers to Dave Barry articles that explain that this should not be
- passed around. I don't mean legalese copyright notices, but just
- friendly requests, like "Please do not distribute this article.
- Subscriptions to Dave Barry's articles are available by e-mail by
- contacting <whatever address>@clarinet.com"

- Certainly this is no deterrent, but it would let people know that
- this isn't supposed to be done. From my experience, people pass
- things around on the Net because they don't know they're not supposed
- to, not because they're trying to break the law.
