I have uploaded each movie for posterity, with the hope that all present and future generations will learn from and enjoy them, as much as I have. I own zero rights to this film, nor to any other I have uploaded, and I receive nothing for the uploads nor for the information I put with those uploads. I do receive a huge amount of joy in sharing with you, these many 100s of free-to-you items I have uploaded, however, I have no wish to infringe on any existing copyright laws. DEF.gp ddh ** The following statement is written from my heart ... these are my words and not to be in any way, considered a form letter from archive.org, as the two cents' worth comes from this volunteer, IA member-user-uploader. Thank you in advance for keeping in mind, my thought process. :) (ed note from Doreen.) * Although it's quite true that all uploaded material found at archive.org is free for you to watch or download, the space needed to store it, is not. As you can well imagine, IA grows in leaps and bounds each and every day, the daily cost to keep this wonderful address we so much enjoy, running at proper capacity, is tremendous. This fact is the one and ONLY reason a yearly fundraiser is necessary .... to raise extra dollars to keep this free-for-viewing/downloading and available for today's generations as well as for all future generations! Each of we worldwide family of members & viewers of archive.org, can help to support this rare, free, and most importantly of all, non-profit organization, because with as little as $1 to $5, you too can make a difference. Small donation, you say? Yes, maybe so .. but stop and think of the huge difference that donation can make, if every single one of we archive.org. members/users just say: ''I can do that, and I WILL do that!'' Please consider making that very important donation. Sincerely, I thank you. Doreen. (DEF.gp ddh) *
