How is such notification done? To easily find some examples, look for Jane Austen's works, H.G. Wells, and other well-known long-dead authors. Note that they seem to use a ridiculous date for "world wide" public domain...something in the 1800s, rather than a "US-Safe" cutoff of 1923. I think they (Google) are creating ambiguity when there is none, at least in the US. -- Greg
