Human society has laws in place that protect people from "intellectual
property"
and protect them from that of "discovery of ideas". We have those
protections
via copyright and they are based primarily on the earliest date of
appearance,
or better yet "earliest provable date of appearance in a public
forum".
One such public forum is the Office of Copyrights and Patents of a
country's
government. Other forums are newspapers and magazines and journals.
And
since the end of the 20th century with the introduction of the
Internet, the Internet
has become a new forum in which copyrights can be provable dated.
The Atom Totality theory was copyrighted in the USA Copyright office
in 1991
under the title (if my memory is correct) "Plutonium Atom Universe:
Unification
of physics, chemistry, biology and math" and under my legal name then
of
Ludwig van Ludvig.
The Internet has become a better vehicle of intellectual property
rights since it
gives a date-time-group immediately upon posting to a science
newsgroup, whereas
it takes months and years before copyright office or newspapers or
journals print
something. The Internet is immediate and effective on the date time
group. I am not
speaking of the web where date time group can be forged. I am speaking
of the science
newsgroups such as sci.physics or sci.econ or soc.history where each
post is date
time grouped.
So it is easy to see for anyone and to verify that in August of 1993
was placed many posts
to the science newsgroups speaking of the Atom Totality Theory where
the Universe is
a single atom and that single atom is plutonium. Each of those posts
were date timed grouped
and anyone at this moment in 28 June 2008 can look up those posts of
mine.
In fact the first post of the Atom Totality theory was Fri, 13 Aug
1993 01:51:07
From: Ludwig Plutonium (my legal name then)
Subject was "Pi 22/7 & e 19/7 because our Maker is an atom of
plutonium
But society also wants people to be able to use ideas and information
and does this with a
law called the Fair Use law. So we have two laws-- copyright law that
protects people of ideas
and we have Fair Use law that allows for ideas to be disseminated and
spread. So we have
a dance balancing act between protection to authors and spreading of
ideas so the larger
mass of people can be informed.
As in the case above of the Reed Elsevier, I used the Fair Use law of
quoting a paragraph ( a
paragraph is the size of a Fair Use law application and where I
include the author of the quote--
Reed Elsevier.
But now, let me focus on the title of the Dalai Lama's book of
"Universe in a Single Atom"
Because it is the title of the book is especially alarming. Alarming
because somewhere in
the 1990s I used the signature block for my posts as
Archimedes Plutonium
whole entire Universe is just one big atom
where dots of the electron-dot-cloud are galaxies
I said in the 1990s "whole entire Universe is just one big atom"
The Dalai Lama said in 2005 "Universe in a single atom"
Now there is copyright laws and to me those two statements above
are one and the same idea, and the legal profession allows us to
use new ideas so long as we give citation and reference.
So if the Dalai Lama had cited that Archimedes Plutonium as the
author of the idea somewhere in his book would have sufficed for
Fair Use. The reason I can quote Reed Elsevier is because of Fair Use
law, but if I had posted what Reed Elsevier said, even change a few
words
and not mentioned Reed Elsevier, then I would be violating copyright
law,
pretending as though the ideas came from me when they came from
Reed Elsevier.
I can understand why the Dalai Lama would want to have the title
"Universe
in a Single Atom" becuase it does unify not only the sciences as all
physics
but it unifies every subject in the world from physics to poetry to
spirituality.
If the Universe is one big atom and we are inside that big atom, then
everything
is unified as physics. Plus the fact that an Atom Totality endorses
reincarnation
where photons and neutrinos are rebundled in the Nucleus and we can
have a
form of reincarnation would attract the attention of the Dalai Lama.
So an Atom
Totality attracts the Dalai Lama because it has the power of unifying
every
subject into one and it has reincarnation.
But, the Dalai Lama should have cited somewhere in his book the author
who discovered
the Atom Totality.
P.S. this thread should be placed in my book of "Internet Publi****ng"
where I discuss
how to publish books on the Internet and I forgot the last number so I
start this one at number
#11.
