@Memor-X Will give some good argument to disney to continue fighting for copyright to never expire
or that the copyright can be transferred to an entity and is not linked to the life of someone
 
I would agree with copyright no longer expiring, BUT it would have to come with a comprehensive "fair use" regulatory framework, which at a baseline assumes "everything is permitted without charge unless the copyright holder establishes a clear set of rules that other creators can use to make related works and how much those cost"
So instead of the current system where there are a narrow set of vaguely defined rules that require legal battles to define and everything else is banned, right holders must establish clear rules about what their property can NOT be used for, but beyond that all companies can do is establish a reasonable payment standard

@MBraedley I assume you're still safe at home?
 
Yeah, fire hasn't grown much today, and I'm hoping the cold weather tonight will let them make more progress in containing it tomorrow.
The anxiety level has been pretty high all day though

And of course I can't have much if any alcohol either in case I need to get in my car and drive an hour.
