You have to be fast in the bussiness if plagiarism.
What took the most time was arguing who got all the $$$.

But seriously.It really is a fine line to draw and not even a straight 
one at that:

"If nature has made any one thing less susceptible than all others of 
exclusive property, it is the action of the thinking power called an 
idea, which an individual may exclusively possess as long as he keeps 
it to himself; but the moment it is divulged, it forces itself into 
the possession of everyone, and the receiver cannot dispossess himself 
of it. Its peculiar character, too, is that no one possesses the less, 
because every other possesses the whole of it. He who receives an idea 
from me, receives instruction himself without lessening mine; as he 
who lights his taper at mine, receives light without darkening me. 
That ideas should freely spread from one to another over the globe, 
for the moral and mutual instruction of man, and improvement of his 
condition, seems to have been peculiarly and benevolently designed by 
nature, when she made them, like fire, expansible over all space, 
without lessening their density at any point, and like the air in 
which we breathe, move, and have our physical being, incapable of 
confinement or exclusive appropriation. Inventions then cannot, in 
nature, be a subject of property." - Thomas Jefferson

"Now it is 2004
Knock knock at your front door
It's the suede/denim secret police
They have come for your uncool neice 

Come quitely to the camp
You'd look nice as a drawstring lamp
Don't you worry, it's only a shower
For your clothes here's a pretty flower 

Die on organic poison gas
Serpent's egg's already hatched
You will crack, you little clown
When you mess with Govenor Schwarzenegger 

California Uber Alles
Uber Alles California" ... Jello Biafra
