Subject: Requesting permission to use photographs from your company's website

Ms. Margaret Blain Cervarich:

I am a retired chemical engineer and would like permission to use a photo from your beyond.com website in an article that I am writing on asphalt in the Citizendium. A copy of the specific photo is attached below and it was obtained from http://www.beyondroads.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=download_Pictures&startWith=4

Citizendium is a non-profit, free online encyclopedia. Volunteer editors, including university professors and other experts, review all articles before they receive final approval. Unpaid volunteer authors, like myself, must be vetted and approved before they can contribute any articles and all authors must use their real names. You may visit the Citizendium at http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Main_Page to learn more.

If you would grant us the permission to use the photos as a public educational service, we would be most grateful. We would prefer the photos be released under a Creative Commons (CC) license ( see http://creativecommons.org/license/ ), but will gladly accept the terms with which you are most comfortable.

Your photos will be viewable worldwide and will be conspicuously labeled "CC Photo: Asphalt Education Partnership " (or any other name that you specify). If at any time in the future you request the photos' removal, such request will be honored.

Assuming that permission is granted, I will need to receive an email signed by you stating that permission is granted. We are not otherwise allowed to use photos from online websites.

Thanking you for your consideration, I am
Milton Beychok
