It means that *you* should use Google's search capabilities to compare
and contrast what the law says about public domain and copyright. You 
should make an attempt to research these materials on your *own*. I 
suspect that a few others in this group recognize where your continuing 
"what does it mean. . . what does it mean. . ." is leading.

            Have a nice day Jerry!
