By analogy then, so is this email a database of words and characters, 
but that's a perverse interpretation, not what most people would call a 
database, and certainly not for the purposes of EU database copyright 
where a database is "a collection of independent works, data or other 
materials which: (a) are arranged in a systematic or methodical way; and 
(b) are individually accessible by electronic or other means", the key 
word being "independent".
