The Lojban translation of the text is probably fair use, but the use of Jim Davis's art is definitely not. The Right Thing seems to be to fill out the form at http://content.uclick.com/contact_us/index.html (uclick is Garfield's on-line syndicator) and ask for permission. Emphasize that you only want to run these five specific strips, that you are not acting for profit, and that they are faithful translations of Davis's original text. You should also offer to provide a link to www.garfield.com and an appropriate copyright notice. Reuters Health, at any rate, routinely grants permission without charge to use its content in this way. Good luck. -- Not to perambulate || John Cowan the corridors || http://www.reutershealth.com during the hours of repose || http://www.ccil.org/~cowan in the boots of ascension. \\ Sign in Austrian ski-resort hotel
