The Simple Version

Here it all is in a nutshell:

The rules haven't changed since you were in grade school:

Be nice, play nice, ask questions and share with each other!

You must receive permission to use the site audio, video, or written content for any commercial purpose (see content use section of this page).

or, in other words --

Check your own sources -- and -- If you wouldn't say it in front of your sainted grandmother then you shouldn't be saying it here!
