Are you serious?  And is this possible?  Can you (or anyone) copyright
something that people have been using for years, and that each person 
likely came up with on their own?  Am I under copyright violation by
including the above text in this posting?  :-)  (*)

How about if I hereby copyright the symbol '|' ?  Unix (tm) users 
beware!  Or the symbol :-) ?(*)  Granted, I'm not familiar with the GNU 
license, but this whole copyright thing struck me as a little odd if 
not extreme, or possibly beyond legal limits.  I don't mean to start 
a controversy on the net, so please Email if anyone needs to set me
straight or just tell me to take a valium.
