A friend of mine who has been in the videography business for the last 17 years
told me that large cities such as San Francisco, San Diego, and the such have
copyrighted the image of their city skyline.

He used to live in San Diego, and he said that you cannot video tape the 
skyline of
San Diego and put it in one of your productions unless you pay the City of San 
Diego
a copy right fee which I think he said was about $30.

Has anyone else ever heard of such an extreme copyright rule?  Does that mean 
you have to
pay New York City a fee to use a video clip of their skyline which would 
include the
Statue of Liberty and the other tall buildings.  If this is true, pretty soon 
some one is going
to copyright the air we breathe and demand a "use" fee for breathing it.
