Quote - The problem with Copyright discussions is just that though TG. Some folks have elevated the ownership of an idea to the same levels as religious fervor. And they're down right religious in their desire to not be moved for fear it will loose them their salvation in some way. Best just to smile at the notions of those who disagree with you and move on.

Well, this seems to be true of discussions about just about anything. People can get remarkably emotional about movie reviews, fast food dishes, the local weather. I'm guessing that if we have the emotional space to get dramatic over something like the moral basis of intellectual property rights, it probably means we have pretty darned easy lives. So that's a good thing.

But really the whole purpose of continuing with a discussion of this nature is not to persuade SM, for example, to a different opinion. He won't be persuaded no matter what anyone says. The purpose of continuing is to share our opinions so that we can bond with those who agree with us, and possibly to persuade the lurkers.
