Steinbeck

[Mark Kohut]

just fyi for pynchon listers. I am a big believer in getting royalties---more
royalties--- to the creators of books we read. 

Therefore a staunch supporter of copyright laws. 

So, I just want to point out that the free Australian ebook of It Can't Happen Here
offers no royalties to the Lewis estate. This book is still under copyright in the U.S.
where it was originally published.
