John:  I sent a brief write-up on the definition of 'fair use', but  
it wasn't brief enough.  The moderator likes posts that are less than  
about 5K bytes;  mine was a bit over 10k.  (Must be a Berkeley guy :-)

The gist was this:

Take a look at the Stanford Law School library's site on "Copyright  
and Fair Use":

     http://fairuse.stanford.edu/Copyright_and_Fair_Use_Overview/ 
chapter9/9-a.html

This gives a brief and easy-to-understand definition of 'fair use'.

Cheers,

earle
