  Sounds like a plan to me (and a right good one).

  Ugh

  on US Olympic Committee Forces 30 Year Old Philidelphia Gyro Restaraunt To Change Its Name
  This is why I will no longer watch the Olympics or do anything to directly support the games or the athletes.
  
  Also, TD, your little frame you keep the FB like button sucks as it keeps me from posting my comments when I like an article. Try again.

  on A Perspective On The Complexities Of Copyright And Creativity From A Victim Of Infringement
  Chemistry can get complex, but not the pizza recipe. To make a pizza unique, the best you can do is change the toppings. You can't change the dough recipe significantly (whole wheat vs. white flour is about the best you can do) without changing significantly how it rises, cooks and tastes. You can change all the toppings (sauce, cheese, meats, veggies) but basically a pizza is a pizza. The only real creativity comes in changing the toppings.
  
  Quit comparing apples and oranges.

  Copyright Infringement?

  on A Perspective On The Complexities Of Copyright And Creativity From A Victim Of Infringement
  I've seen several videos showing how most major pop-songs are formulaic to start off with, employing the same 4 basic cords and make music that essentially sounds the same with most of the differences in the vocals.
  
  I'm inclined to agree, to some degree, that we shouldn't go blatantly ripping off other people without at least giving them credit (I fully support CopyFree licensing fwiw), but at the same time if the music industry has made everything so similar anyways, where do we have room to claim any right to how any other song sounds (no matter how similar)?

  What?!

  on AOL Sells Its Patents To Microsoft For $1 Billion: Microsoft Now Owns Netscape IP
  I just died a little bit today.
  
  FWIW, I have an official install disk of Netscape Communicator 4.7 at home. Never getting rid of it, after all, it's part of history (now that MS owns Netscape IP...).

  on Gibson Gets An Injunction Over PaperJamz; Retailers Ordered To Stop Selling Them
  Why yes. That really does make their claims suspect because it shows that they really didn't do their homework before filing the lawsuit.
  
  Also, I'm with TD. There is no damage being done to Gibson.

  Nor would I. One ruling in favor of the Gazette and it's over.
