Do you know the real difference between the poor mans copyright and the copyright office? Answer 45 dollars. if you look at the date of creation on your copyright regigration certificate you will see they got it right off your enevople that you sent it in. In other words the poor mans copyright works they just won't back it up because they didn't get their 45dollars. it is all about money today and always has been. Thats my take on it anyway. I know many will disagree but thats my expereience. ---Steve
