'Verbatim', yes. But I can extract any mechanics I like, redescribe them
in my own words, and reuse them. More importantly, since those mechanics
were deisgned and tested around the D20 system, it's of more use to me
than extracting mechanics from, say, Call of Cthulhu.

MECHANICS CANNOT BE COPYRIGHTED.
