       @gutenberg_org Ah! Copyright kills the joy in words,for years numberless beyond the lives of men!The words decay like ragged handfuls of rotted leaves,locked in their covers on silent shelves.

       @gutenberg_org What the article doesn't say is that many people make up languages for fun, as a hobby for its own sake, not for any literary, scientific or political purpose.

       @gutenberg_orgThat transcription was a transformative use of a very small section of a copyrighted work. And did you think printing the words in the Feanorean alphabet removed the copyright?However, I have edited the offending post to remove the forbidden text. What is in there now is my own composition - on which I hold the copyright.
