In the brave new world of no copyright, I could write Trek with Donald Duck as the main character fighting Sherlock Holmes and no one could stop me as long as I put the little trademark symbols beside the names. 1. The problem with that is...? I'd like to see someone discuss copyright without immediately falling back on OH GOD NOES FANFIC. 2. Sherlock Holmes is public domain, you idiot.
