-
- As a sometime book author, I don't feel that the titles of the
- Kelly/Spies book and the prospective Jax Fan Club Bible are
- alarmingly similar. They both have "FORTH" up front in the title,
- which is just good commonsense title design, but "A Text and
- Reference" doesn't really have quite the same ring as "The New
- Model" -- do you think?
-
- Anyway, for better or worse, it's a fact of life in the
- publishing industry that you can't copyright a title - only the
- contents.
