It sems to me that a clever lawyer could drive a cart and horse through the copyright protection we thought we all had. Paranoia is not such a far-out thing when you stop to consider how biased the world out there is against the artist and his work. They really want to eff you at every step; worse, seems that they can.

Thanks for the link, Mike. I shall NOT sleep more peacefully tonight.

I hope Dale doesn´t pick up on this one - those damn last few nails are adding up fast!
