You have never ONCE given any proof that you actually have anything to sell. You claim to give classes and all kinds of stuff, but you never have shown anything including a single canceled check or a receipt for a rented conference room or ANYTHING that would suggest you actually have something.

All you ever offer is to show someone how to do this and then make them enter an agreement that if they show someone else they have to put all their content into the public domain.

So answer me this: How much would you charge me to show me this magical formula of yours and teach me how to use it? Do you have a money back guarantee? Prior to me spending a dime on your service can you give me a list of clients or customers who can vouch for you?

so your definition of shortening is to go from 70 years after a person death to forever (since you will never go into the public domain and be totally free to use)

and in exchange for that fake "shortening" you want everyone to give up the fair use rights they currently have for the first 30 years.

do you really believe anyone is stupid enough to believe that bullshit.
Actually, I wouldn't be opposed to all copyrights ending upon a person's death or after a reasonable amount of time thereafter. For example if someone lives to be 90 and they die, the copyright dies with them. But if they are like Kurt Cobain and die young, their family gets to hold onto it for at least that 30 year window.

Also, I find it kind of funny that you are pissed at people getting paid for life for their copyrighted works, yet you are doing the exact same thing. You claim that you teach people how to use your system and part of the deal (at least as I remember it from the big fallout with The Doc) is that you get something like 5% of whatever they make for a long as they use your system. So if I write a book I should be forced to give up my copyright which would force people to pay me if they used it after a set period of time, but it is okay for you to force people to pay you for life when they use your system to make money. How is that fair or different?
