well in some contries 'intellectual property' is unstransferable & ad
eternam, and a worker could even revendicate it on some produce of his
paid labor, this in theory..just for saying the copyright is just another
word for reification of my ass

really i am flabbergasted about your 'copied a work', a work has an output,
thats all

yez, but malarmé says a danseuse is not a woman who dances, permit i add a
femme fatal is not a woman with a garter belt (just)

the romantic is for the affirmative action, as in the ancient regime, the
rabble doesnt pay, specially the nice women...the young and well turn guys
no more

i see one thing here first : the creative process must be protected it's
as r&d, the potential must be protected it's evident this power is one of
the main incredible human heritage 'we are standing dwarfs on the shoulder
of giants etceteraz' but from this point begin all the blackmail & threat
so why i propose as robespierre to blind guillotine around and to f. 451
burn all the legal precedent this as some standing on ceremony just to
balance the menace & relax the stressing atmosphere after we will be all
only among gente dames (nice ones) & gentilhommes (well turn) for finding
gentlemen agreement (and refreshment) well i speak about the survivors, i
and you (i sincerely hope)

mais a bag of peanuts too monsieur
the huge problem is you could produce peanuts (as sex) with some whip
but hitler knew it was better to caress wernher von braun than kicking his
fucking nazi ass for having V1&V2 output..americans too for having saturne V
& the god warrior julot 2 knew it was better to not kick too much the one of
homosexual, well sometimes, specially michelangeloz one, for a nice tomb
it's schelling i believe who has said something as 'the play is what is
human in the man and a man could never be more a man as when he plays'
but gladiator marximus didnt like so much zuch zuper wankerz az shelling &
romantics, i bet you know why
 marximus !
