Copyright

I've been interested in copyright and trademark for some time.

eventually, I added links to a couple of special pages on my own site.

Browser and search engine improvements have eliminated the motivation/necessity for them.

NOTICE - SITE UNDERGOING EXTENSIVE REWRITE -
The new pages are slightly wider and the new main menu is wider as well. The bottom of the page menu (see the box immediately above) is being eliminated. Failing links are being identified/removed and the HTML is being corrected/revised to better use CSS Structures and to use fewer old HTML structures. During the transition, some old pages show formatting errors in the HTML, and the page may be "not quite right".

I appreciate your patience while this effort proceeds. Completion was originally estimated for Dec.2011. However the lengthy illness and "recent" death of my mother (20.Jul.2011) coupled with the effects of my strokes and my personal focus on finding employment, has caused me to reestimate completion for Dec.2012, gods willing and the creeks don't rise.

Please email me me about any errors you detect or questions/suggestions you may have.

  Check out my ezine Snippets and blog My Ephemerae.
  Yes ... I want you to link to my site. Please link to me.
  Want to email me? I'd love to hear from you.
  I have begun tutoring in the Clear Lake, Texas area.
