Hi John, There was a typo in the url. Try this http://www3.telus.net/public/ormerod/NASSVanRTB/Timelines.ppt It is also on the CD distributed at the conference.
Since the intellectual property/copyright issue has exploded, I would like to back off on blanket permission for unrestricted use of this file. Anyone can download, view and enjoy the presentation but no one can copy the presentation or contained images without my specific permission. It remains my creative work, my exclusive property. As Bill T pointed out, this is the essence of copyright law. It does not need to be explicitly stated. It is an inherent right. Yes, I was just a tourist passing through who snapped some pictures of public sundials. But the images are still mine and the creator of the original artwork, or the current owner may also still rights. For example, I would not show pictures of your dials without at least attributing them to you. I am writing a summary of the NASS conference in Vancouver and have clipped a few pictures from your presentation to be part of the summary. The attribution is direct but legally I may require your permission to use your images. Well Ok, this would fit within the "acceptable use" criteria that Bill T. mentioned but it is still an area of concern in our society with a strong sense of property values, including intellectual property. The internet and the easy of electronic copying makes the problem worse but it does not change the concept. We own what we create.

Can you email me the PDF if you have it? Also, If you have any more good photos of PWS that we don't have will you be sending them?
