That's one way of wording it. I was wording it in my head as only allowing my 
works to be combined in these ways with works of a similar license.

Sure. Id on't like the feeling I have lately that people with big money are 
at 
the least lobbying for and influencing the passage of laws that put me at 
grave risk of jail and hugh, unreasonable fines, for what could be simple 
innocent mistakes with an actual cost to them of no more than $20.00. In 
fact, I don't see how the figure could even get to that size.

I don't want to make it easier for people who think like this to use my work 
to make money which they can use against me. And I don't trust them to be 
reasonable.

Perhaps I cannot accomplish this desire without compromising on values I hold 
and will not violate, but I am not unwilling to explore the options.

all the best,
