Public Domain Conference Papers Online.

bwoodard writes "Over the weekend Duke University Law school held a conference on the public domain which included many well known Free Software advocates such as Lawrence Lessig and Eben Moglen. The papers (in PDF) are presented were quite thought provoking and well worth a read." Timothy brought this conference to our attention on scary halloween.

    I could while away the hours
    Conferrin' with the flowers
    Consultin' with the rain
    And my head, I'd be scratchin'
    While my thoughts were busy hatchin'
    If I only had a brain.

    I'd unravel ev'ry riddle
    For any individ'le
    In trouble or in pain

    With the thoughts you'd be thinkin'
    You could be another Lincoln,
    If you only had a brain.

    Oh, I could tell you why
    The ocean's near the shore,
    I could think of things I never thunk before
    And then I'd sit and think some more.

    I would not be just a nuffin'
    My head all full of stuffin'
    My heart all full of pain.
    I would dance and be merry
    Life would be a ding-a-derry
    If I only had a brain--Whoa!
