Actually, the fact that you cannot appeal for fair use (or at least give rationalization) points to how broken the system is. On the other hand, I can also understand why his appeals fall to deaf ears. When handling the first few DMCAs for Fork the Cookbook, I would contact the user who uploaded the recipe, and talk to the user (and offer the user to post counter notices) It was a time consuming, draining process, having to feel fire from your users, and the copyright holders. It's very draining, and I was very tempted to write an automated DMCA process for Fork the Cookbook. In the end, I decided not to for a few reasons.
