Absolutely NOT.
The fact that YOU couldn't easily find the owner does NOT mean that there
isn't one. I'll bet that you didn't even check with county records in all
appropriate counties to confirm whether they were dead or alive, and who
their heirs were.
Another way to look at it - If it was your code, some
small silly thing
you wrote, would you care?
And you think that YOU can determine which things I wrote are "some small
silly thing"?
