Cory says some very nice things about my essay (thanks!) but I am going to claim he missed some points. In his account, our essays fail to grapple with the fact that one of the biggest problems we face today is monopoly and oligopoly. Same! In fact, I mention a grand total of one book in my essay and it is… Chokepoint Capitalism by @doctorow (Buy it!)

Happy Public Domain Day! Your present? Winnie the Pooh. The first book is in the public domain today. You can share, copy and remix. Plus you get Bambi, The Sun Also Rises, Langston Hughes first poems and 400k sound recordings! web.law.duke.edu/cspd/publicdom… We need Pooh right now, just like we needed Ted Lasso. We need kindness and modesty and the desire to help. Did you forget to be kind to someone in 2021? Fix it. Now. Pooh did.
