By registering the copyright, would the author be entitled to collect
damages??  First, one would have to prove some form of damages, right?
That doesn't seem terribly easy.  Then again, by all indications,
there are no lawyers on this list so I wonder how many people actually
understand what the legal aspects are.  I certainly am in the fog.  If
someone versed in law does get ahold of this message, maybe he would
be kind enouogh to mail me (or the newsgroup) what the law states.
