Re: Buzzing again? (o/t a lot)Posted by Daniel on July 30, 2003 at 00:28:08: In reply to: Re: Buzzing again? (o/t a little) posted by Muse on July 24, 2003 at 02:05:14: : So, Daniel, unless you've done as much research as she has,compiled : it all, and made it into several fully documented papers, as well as : a highly informative and accessible website, I think you should : really consider getting off your high horse when you talk. Maybe the : reason everyone seems to 'buzz' you is that you seem to be really : arrogant and stubborn in your mindset. Is it my style that bothers you? What seems arrogant to you may not be to others. Voice my opinion is simply my right. : And yes, if you go to museums and reinterpret designs, and make them : available to the general public, they are copyrighted. Do you think : Arthur Laurents didn't copyright 'West Side Story', just because it : was a reinterpretation of Romeo and Juliet? Does this analogy frees everyone from theft? My concern is this double standard that everyone gets suddenly aquainted to. When it concerns others, the laws of copyright are followed. And when it concerns some, it's ok to "REINTERPRET DESIGNS"? I don't this your argument made sense. : And one other thing. Freedom of speech is a basic American right, : it's true, but often it means freedom to sound like an idiot. You : might want to think about that. And respect isn't an obligation, : it's just that. A sign of respect. It's all very well and good to : voice your opinions civilly, but, yeah, people usually seem to : object to being told they're 'WRONG' on a point of personal : morality. HeLLO?? Don't you think that if she voices her concerns in this arena, she puts herself at risk to have her little feelings hurt by others' opinions. I'm not trying to sound like you, because I have to retain my freedom of speech. Meaning that if I believe she's WRONG! Then I say it. At least she would have gotten my TRUE opinion/belief. Everytime I get the weird impression that this forum is regularly frequented by the same SEWING CIRCLE! Now, you've done a good job. May be goddess will give you a cookie. Daniel : : Okay, I'm done now. : : Muse
