This is groovy, but I'm a mite confused by the following...
It seems 
contradictory to my small brain, but prolly is not.... Could
you help me 
to understand?   Perhaps I need to paste earlier rows as
well... but 
these were the ones that troubled me.

Unpublished works created before 1978 that were published
before 1 
January 2003 	Life of the author + 70 years or 31 December
2047, 
whichever is greater 	Nothing. The soonest the works can
enter the 
public domain is 1 January 2048
Unpublished works created before 1978 that were published
after 31 
December 2002 	Life of the author + 70 years 	Works of
authors who died 
before 1934.

Pardon the cross-listing but since questions about
   

copyright come up
 

frequently on this list, I thought I'd direct your
   

attention to this:
 

Copyright Term and the Public Domain in the United States

A reference chart to help you to determine the  copyright
   

status of a given
 

work
