Namely, I heard that the RSV was written at the turn of the century and the copyright could expire. Anyone know? Can we put a non-KJV out on the net (finally :-)? -- -catt (live: sacg1198@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu/dead: cattanac@cs.uiuc.edu) (or for you freenet buffs: ak601@cleveland.freenet.edu) I've never really trusted Smokey the Bear. Everytime I see him I wonder what happened to the Boy Scout that was orginally wearing that hat. [I don't know the answer, but I think RSV may be a special case. I recall vaguely Congress passing a special law to extend the copyright beyond its normal term. --clh]
