29. Bill, Yes Of Course It Was...
Thu Nov 29, 2012, 11:05 AM
Nov 2012

It just reminded of the related issue. I suppose every time I see Peanuts characters, I'm reminded of how much Charles Schultz didn't want his strip to survive him. It's like Bill Watterson with Calvin and Hobbs. People are constantly using his characters without permission...and he is passionate about intellectual property rights. Yeah, I know it's a bit off topic...but it is rare when I have a chance to speak on an issue that I actually have some knowledge about...LOLOLOL

By the way...I'm a big fan of your writing. Never miss an opportunity to read your offerings.

Peace
