Teddy Roosevelt tried to interfere, but the coal miners stood firm. He later arbitrated, and they went back to work Oct. 23, 1902.

The iron got hot - so they decided to strike.

Can I have this person banned for impersonating me?

Either s/he's trying to impersonate me, or my boyfriend... I really can't tell.

And she's using my copyrighted photo without permission. Isn't there a rule against that?!

"Either s/he's trying to impersonate me,"

The slow leading the slow.

And we're supposed to believe nitsua is who they say they are? Really?

And did you really actually send the photo to the Copyright and Trademark Office of the Federal Government of the United States? And if so, can we have the registration number?

Don't try to be smart, Robbie, because it makes you look stupid.

Intellectual copyright is automatic. When you write something, as in a short story or screenplay, it's automatically copyrighted, without you having to send anything in. The same goes for photographs.

Oh dear. As I've worked in IP legal issues for the last 8 years or so, that's not exactly true. Actually, that's not remotely true.*

Maybe not in legal and suit, but it still stands.

I took the photo. I own it, just as I own everything I write.

(Unless its BWW, or some other message board website.)

I'm fairly certain you don't have to worry about anyone stealing what you write.

My screenplays are pretty good. I probably shouldn't do this, but...

I'm flattered that you don't think that's my script, but I assure you, it is.

I think I speak on behalf of a lot of people here.

We don't care.

Diva, why are you being such a bitch? If you don't care, shut the **** up.

Franklin, I'm much better at writing screenplays.

You are wrong. Copyright exists at the MOMENT it is in a fixed medium (i.e., no longer just an image in one's mind). It does not have to be registered. All you have to do is look at the copyright office's official website for proof. However, if one is planning on litigation for copyright infringement, then one has to register the copyright. As a matter of law, it is not a mandatory requirement. And point of fact, registration is not de facto proof of copyright ownership.

That's legally right, yes. It's a matter of the burden of proof eventually.

Take my word for it, Franklin. My novels (or chapters, rather) were just scenes, in paragraph form. Just action and dialogue.
