As you see, I've added something similar.

My only concern is that my notice (or Johannes's) could be 
interpreted to prevent you from quoting my posts. I think it's 
implicit in the subscription contract, and in the fact of posting to 
a list, that you allow others to quote your posts in the context of 
that list.

The point is, by explicitly saying "all rights reserved" Johannes has 
notified you that he has the right to control how his words are used, 
and if you use them after he's specifically told you not to, then you 
have no legal or ethical leg to stand on.
