Actually, apart from "copyrighted", that's what culture is all about. In Homer's times, it took decades and life times for cultural works to spread, take hold, and make an impact through grassroots. In our times of modern communication and copyright, a life time is not enough. You have to restrict yourself to material from the beginning of last century. Or pay more money than grassroots could afford. So culture is no longer something that can grow outside of greenhouses, in the wild. -- David Kastrup, Kriemhildstr. 15, 44793 Bochum _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
