Tarot by HHOriginally by jan50jan:- This is really turning into a real head scratcher Therefore, my tarot journal is full of illegal materials?? Making my head swim .but does this make sense as far as how it might apply to copywrite laws .I could never study or repeat what I see [/quote] Although the following URL deals mainly with Usenet and copyright issues/myths the following is of interests to our discussion [url]http://www.templetons.com/brad/copymyths.html[/url] (excert) 11)"So I can't ever reproduce anything?"
