Yet, a parody to GONE WITH THE WIND a few years ago was apparently
allowed

The parodies of the famous works thrive via publicity, and I suppose
an alleged Holden Caulfield knock-off could be revised enough,
especially with all them puters they got nowdays

Law judgment or interpretation is always subject to ... confusion, I
mean to
change

Legal law is not "physics law," but now that I think about it, do not
paradigm over-turning discoveries <please see philosopher Thomas Kuhn>
substantively
impinge upon or change some previously accepted "law" or customary or
common
assumption or understanding of physics?

When J.D. Salinger deliberately appears on tv or in public, won't that
change the ( I just made this bullcrap up) "Gretta Garbo celebrity law
of reclusiveness?"

Hey, this is the internet, where any idiot can pose as a moron, and
post
ideas that could not appear elsewhere except as graffiti on cabooses,
and
what the h happened to cabooses by the way?
