Will Irdial also be suing Boards Of Canada, then? There's a sample of one of
the Conet Project tracks on one of the tracks on their "Geogaddi" album...

IANAL, of course, but

isn't true. If he's correct that copyright exists in the recordings,
then it's yours. You don't need to do anything to copyright it, it just
exists. Further, unless you formally handed over the copyright to him,
rather than merely gave him license to use the recordings, the copyright
is still yours.

Interesting but...

rant
'"phonetic alphabet" letters -- the abbreviations pilots use ("alpha"
for a, "bravo" for b and so on).'

It's not the "phonetic" alphabet. That is the one used in dictionarys to
demonstrate the "phonetics" of a word allowing pronunciation.

What will you be buying with your royalties Simon?

No, but thanks for the offer H. I'm kicking myself more for the fact
that when I moved house in 2000, I didn't need to sell my old one and kept
it empty for 6 months. After that time I had to start paying council tax on
it again, so I sold it for 30k. The same houses are now going for 105k!
That's what hurts most ;-)

Still, I wouldn't trade being fit and healthy for 105k, much.

Ah you see we are safe there as according to the spooks, these stations do
not exist!
