Always has been. My girlfriend's father went to college with him, and was best friends with Watterson's roommate. Appearantly he always kept very much to himself. </p> <p>Interestingly enough as fate moved along, said father some years later lived in a little town in Ohio with his young daughter. They were taking care of his young nephew at the time. Scott, the father, was a tall man, with glasses, who loved bikes, builds them, in fact, and he would often take little Rachel and James on walks in their red wagon...</p> <p>...right past the house Watterson was living in about time he first created Calvin and Hobbes. Scott didn't find out his old acquaintance lived in the same town until Rachel was into her teens. Odd little cooincidence, don't you think?</p> <p>Sei</p><hr /><a name="a102_17"></a><p><b>From: UCONN Dave &amp; Lynn too (DANDL48)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=102.17">#17</a>]<br /> 30 Mar 2005<br /><b>To: Sei (SEIMA)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=102.16">#16</a>] 31 Mar 2005</p> <p>Oops, he is still alive, and here is so info on his copy rights.</p> <p><a href="http://www.lambiek.net/watterson.htm">http://www.lambiek.net/watterson.htm</a></p> <hr /><a name="a102_18"></a><p><b>From: Michael</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=102.18">#18</a>]<br /> 30 Mar 2005<br /><b>To: UCONN Dave &amp; Lynn too (DANDL48)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=102.14">#14</a>] 31 Mar 2005</p> <p>Current copyright law in the U.S. protects a holder's rights 50 or more years after his/her death.</p> <p>Michael</p><hr /><a name="a102_19"></a><p><b>From: Noel (NOELF)</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=102.19">#19</a>]<br /> 1 Apr 2005<br /><b>To: Michael</b> [<a href="lmessages.php?webtag=EE&msg=102.18">#18</a>] 1 Apr 2005</p> <p>It is actually 70 years past the creators death in most cases.</p> <p>This is the current law:</p> <p>ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¢ÃƒÆ’Ã‚Â¢ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¬ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¢ Original work created after 1977 and is fixed to a tangible medium is copyrighted to the original creator for life plus 70 years.</p> <p>ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¢ÃƒÆ’Ã‚Â¢ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¬ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¢ Original work created by employees for their employer lasts for 95 years from original publication or 120 years from date of creation (whichever occurs first).</p> <p>ÃƒÆ’Ã†â€™Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¢ÃƒÆ’Ã‚Â¢ÃƒÂ¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…Â¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¬ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â¢ Original works created and published between 1923-1963 are copyrighted for 95 years (28 years + 47 year renewal + 20 year extension) only if the work was timely renewed.
