I was basically being sarcastic. The point being that
it's ridiculous
for them to make demands to the effect that copyright be extended into
eternity, just as it would be for somebody to demand that it be
abolished completely. Either way, the purpose of copyright is defeated.
Have to love that Disney, one of the ones constantly pushing
to have it's characters protected for longer and longer periods, has
also been one to make quite a bit of money off of other's work that
has fallen into the public domain, such as Tom Sawyer and others.
