Nor have I denied it.  It was pretty well covered in BNA's Patent
Trademark Copyright Journal, and also in a meeting of the House
subcommittee, so I don't see any reason why I need to acknowledge
it.  It isn't anything I had anything to do with, or have direct
knowledge of.

But I do know that it didn't make all music works for hire, much
as all collections or translations or motion pictures aren't.

And I think there is a misplaced comma in the legislation ...
