Perhaps a very naive question, but could you elaborate on that Kevin.
If fair use lies outside the reach of copyright, and if a license can
only apply to the rights given by copyright, how can a license
restrict fair use? Could you give an example of this explicitness you
speak of that might place such a restriction?
