It's always so much fun to reduce you to such petty lying (reduced from the more grandious kind you usually start with). I admitted no such thing. In fact I forced you to admit that copyright does not grant ownership over pieces of other people's brains, as you had comically claimed several times before.
Roy:
"It is likewise a fact of physical reality that when someone reads the book, or hears it read aloud, the intangible story then also exists in the reader's/listener's brain. It is likewise a fact of physical reality that the author does not and _cannot_ possess the contents of any other person's brain. How can he own what he cannot possess?"
-You
"?? No. A trademark restriction is not ownership of the contents of anyone's brain, but a limitation on the uses people can make of those contents. Like a signature. As I said."
-You, in fine Roy fasion, showing why you cannot carry on a conversation for more than a few posts without painting yourself in to a corner.
For weeks you carried on with the laughable line that copyright is wrong because it grants ownership over a person's brain. At least you have given up on that load of bullshit.
