Francoise,

: You don't have to do anything to copyright your stuff, at least not with any gummint agency. Copyright automatically inheres in the fact that you wrote something.

I don't want to copyright anything I've written. I want it freely distributed, freely copied and freely available. I might be a little pissed if someone changed some of my stuff so that my original intent was altered, though. I'm not in this for glory or money. AlanF who has spent massive amounts of time doing incredibile research and written stuff that could easily be coalesced into a book feels the same way.

Given that, one must question why the mighty Watchtower Printing Corporation INSISTS on a copyright for EVERYTHING they produce. "You received free, give free." - Jesus. Not in WatchtowerWorld.

The irony of that is that they hold copyrights on shit that was outdated months or a few years after they published that crap. Keep in mind that when they publish crap, they publish crap in the hundreds of millions of copies and distribute that crap in 100+ countries. Quantity and crap are not mutually exclusive, by the way. A hundred million pieces of crap is still crap. One piece of solid stuff is still solid stuff. WT goes for volume. I'll do my stuff one-at-a-time. I have no "donation arrangement," either. I think freely. I speak freely. I give freely. I expect no reward other than to stimulate folks to think about stuff.
