Al,

  While these articles /are/ useful, I do not feel it is appropriate to 
paste them directly into email messages; a brief description of the
article and a link would be much prefered, IMO[1].

[1] You are /potentially/ depriving the website from which you copy
    the content of visitors.  Remember, these internet publishers
    are /trying/ to make a living...
[2] While you attribute the articles properly, there is no _guarantee_
    to a recipient that you have not modified the copy.  Having said
    that is in no way implicating that you do or have modified any
    copy you've forwarded.

cheers.
