Re: Re: Re: poetry[ Follow Ups ] [ Post Followup ] [ Patent Forum ] [ FAQ ] Posted by M. Arthur Auslander on June 13, 2001 at 03:38:36: In Reply to: Re: Re: poetry posted by Ned Ericson on June 12, 2001 at 12:25:19: : Your poetry is protected by copyright law once it is created. But registering your poem gets you additional federal protection, and it's well worth it. : You can register a copyright in your poem by submitting a form FL106 and $30 in the U.S. Copyright Office. Check out : http://www.loc.gov/copyright/reg.html : and : http://www.loc.gov/copyright/fls/fl106.pdf for some answers. : The term of the protection will last for your life plus 50 years. The 100-year term applies to pseudonymous works. Dear Mr. Ericson, Just because what you say is true does not protect you from screwing yourself unless you understand the law. M. Arthur Auslander
