Wrong!

Apparently the third point I made about placing a paper into the public
domain was wrong.  It used to be that a person who published something
freely in effect put the paper into the public domain and lost their
copyright.  But I just took a look at some sites describing copyright law,
and apparently under the most recently passed copyright laws the author
retains the copyright, even if they go so far as to give it away free with
no copyright notice.  Sorry for any confusion.
