Hello, All!

In searching through my old boxes of papers, I have found various music circuits
and projects from old electronics magazines. For example, one of these is design
for a Theremin from the November 1967 issue of Popular Electronics using seven
transistors. I have a couple of questions regarding this;

- Is there any real interest on the list for old articles such as this? I have
had no response to the Optimum Fuzz Adapter article, but then again, it's apparently
not a very good circuit.

- What are the copyright issues involved? Is there some time limitation on these
magazine's copyrights? Should I consider scanning and posting articles such
as this on my website? Will I get sued?

- What about component data sheets? Are they copyright as well?

Any other thoughts and information would be appreciated. 

Take care,

Doug
