I'm wondering about music you hear on the radio which is
generally copyrighted, but no notice is given. I'm no attorney, but I
rsad a paper by one concerning info on the net, which basically said not
giving notice doesn't remove the copyright.

As far as making the worlds seem more realistic, well yes. I
think it fitting that we be reminded that our reality belongs to
someone else (any MS Win programmers think they're paying homage to the
richest man in the world?).
