Dear Flash/Jerry/Deb--

My name is George E. ("Geo" or "G. E.") Rule, and I took the picture of Jerry Pournelle in a tuxedo in Seattle at the 2005 NASFIC. The picture was originally of my wife (Deb) and Jerry, but was later cropped to be just Jerry.

I hereby place the cropped image of just Jerry in the public domain and release rights to anyone and everyone (even the heathen geeks who wear no breeks --a little Beam Piper shout-out for Jerry!) to use it however they like. If they care to credit it to "G. E. Rule" they are free to do so, but I don't insist on it.

Jerry is free to do what he likes with any of the pictures we sent him from that event.
