This line was prominantly posted in an online paper:
"Do not cite without permission of the author."
Our right to knowledge has no more agregious incursor than those who perpetrate idea restrictions. Copyright and distribution rights are all about the money and who can't understand that, but how can you restrict peoples right to disseminate information. By making your stuff publicly accessable, aren't you agreeing that the public may refer to your stuff? Do any reference sources you may find in an academic library, like the one at Case Western in Cleveland, require permission before they may be used? If so, precluding classified or otherwize protected papers, I have never run into documents that may be read, but not talked about.
I'm really sorry to see this happen at a school, which I hope would promote free dissemination of knowledge. Would everybody who reads this (all 6 or 8 of you) to click through to the paper cited at the top of this entry, so they will notice my citation of the paper. [pointer from: evo-lution]
