Explain every condition, and write the whole script in our own voice
The instructions only ever covered the weather. They are now four pages: what you decide, how signs and spoilage work, what the sky does, and what the street does - the fair and the rival included, with each condition named and what it does to your day spelled out. Every passage that was reproduced from the original has been rewritten: the welcome, the ledger heading, the thunderstorm, the road works, the heat wave, the bankruptcy line and the cost announcements. A project released under copyleft has no business licensing words it did not write, and now it does not have to. NOTICE.md records what changed and why, and narrows the borrowed material to the town's name and the ledger's labels - neither of which is a copyright question. Shortening the ledger heading also fixes the pill that was wrapping to two lines in the remaster. Checked in both skins: all four pages fit the tube at full size, with room to spare.

Some **on-screen wording** is reproduced from the original from memory, because
|

it is the part people remember word for word:

Earlier drafts of this project reproduced some of the original's on-screen
|
||||
wording from memory — the welcome, the report heading, the thunderstorm and
|
||||
road-works messages. That text was someone else's writing, and a project
|
||||
released under a copyleft licence has no business licensing words it did not
|
||||
write. Every one of those passages has since been rewritten in our own voice.
|
||||
Nothing quoted remains.
|
||||
|
||||
Short functional labels (`GLASSES SOLD`, `WEATHER REPORT: SUNNY`) are hard to
|
||||
express any other way and are not really anyone's creative property. The longer
|
||||
passages are a different matter: they are someone's writing, quoted here as
|
||||
homage rather than authored by us. We cannot license what we did not write, so
|
||||
that wording is **not** covered by this project's licence and is used on a
|
||||
fair-use/de-minimis footing.
|
||||
Two things are still not original, and neither is a copyright question:
|
||||
|
||||
If that footing is not comfortable for a given use, the fix is small and
|
||||
self-contained: rewrite those few strings in your own voice. Nothing else in
|
||||
the project depends on them.
|
||||
- **The setting.** The town is still Lemonsville, California. Names and short
|
||||
titles are not subject to copyright, and it is kept deliberately, as the one
|
||||
visible nod to where the game came from.
|
||||
- **The ledger's labels.** `GLASSES SOLD`, `COST OF SIGNS`, `PROFIT` and the
|
||||
rest are the only sensible words for what they label, and the order they
|
||||
appear in follows from the arithmetic. There is no creative expression in
|
||||
them to own.
|
||||
|
||||
The name *Lemonade Stand* is descriptive and is used descriptively. It is not
|
||||
claimed as a mark of this project.
