Cooks Source Magazine Apologizes — Sort Of

taco8982 writes "Cooks Source has published a statement in response to the uproar over claiming the web is public domain a couple of weeks ago. While it does contain an apology, I'll leave it to individual readers to determine how apologetic it actually is." It also seems that the publisher has decided to cease publication entirely.

    *through history but you're right. In early Christianity the Bible was written only in Latin, and translating it was forbidden. Some guy (i forget his name, sorry) translated it into German and English (not sure about the English) and spread it around He was pretty much ostracized for doing this. After he died, they dug up his body, nailed it to a cross, and set it on fire.

    Hmmm, that name seems to ring a bell. No matter, his 'lifetime +70 years' copyright on it has got to be expired by now, right?
