A comic book about Copyright Law?

Yes!

It's comprehendable, and even fun. Give it a try -- it's in defense of the Fair Use section of copyright law, which has gone overboard in the past few years (such as forcing a filmmaker to either pay $10,000 for a ten-second phone ring melody, or change the tune.)

I don't really know. The drugs make me spacewoman more often than I like. Yes, Copyright is going overboard here. I'll check (if I can hold the thought more than 15 seconds, and no, I ain't kidding...)

Done.

If you want to be on the Lyme list, let me know. It's for writers who want to know how the disease progresses, but a few friends read it to make sure I'm not holding out on them in how I'm doing...
