As an employee of the Library of Congress, I am very sensitive to
copyright issues (or people on the floors above me may send the copyright
police :-)). Since the quoted section was heavily annotated, I believe
there was no violation, especially since no profit was derived.

Except from another message__________
I'm no expert in copyright laws, but as far as I understand it, you
*should* be able to reproduce so long an excerpt in a list such as this,
as you don't make money from it and, even if the posting is distributed,
it is not a paper to be submitted for publication or a dissertation. But I
may be wrong, though.
