In an "uncivilized" country like the United States, Gene Krupa and Roy
Eldridges' "Drum Boogie" composed in 1941 would still enjoy copyright
protection today. Tell me DAK, in an obviously more "civilized" country
like Germany, would the documents directing the gassing of five million
innocent men, women and children in 1941 still enjoy copyright
protection today?
