It'll take me a day or two to analyse its accuracy, but at first
reading, it points out some things you fail to see.

And you really need to learn to read. I never said music was
added 40 years ago, but 40 years after the creation of the first
American Copyright law,. 1831 -1790 equals 41 years, and I
rounded down to the decade.

I think this sums up the entire problem, in that you see what
you want to see, not the facts.

Get off your high horse. You cannot read what I have written
(see example above) correctly, so your accusations of my error
are suspect to say the least. I might say more, but I'm not here
to engage in ad hominem attacks on somebody who cannot even
correctly interpret the english language.

You are mistaken, misinterpreting what I said, or a liar. It
matters not which to me, because the result is the same, there
is no point in continuing this discussion with you..
