Quick (if possible) question on .NET assemblies and dynamic linkage

All,
quick question about assemblies. If someone uses another .NET assembly in a .
NET program, is the first program considered "dynamically linked" into the
new program?

Of course the question arises in licensing (when else?). The LGPL has pretty
clear boundaries on static versus dynamic linking. That would be pretty
clear in the old days using MFC programs and code compiled with VS6 C++ into
DLLs. But what about .NET assemblies? If I compile one and release it as
LGPL, can others link to my programs in Visual Studio and this be considered
"dynamically linked"?

Is "static linking" even possible in .NET short of copy and paste of _source
code_ into my editor and a recompile?

Thanks in advance for any expertise that can shed light on this!

D
