 Ahhh, this to-do reminds my of the declaration, some years ago, of the
Italian gov't that you can't take photos of ANYTHING in Italy without
their permission. Strangely, I have yet to read about mass bustings of
turisti con macchine di fotografia for snapping, say, the Palazzo
Vecchio.
 As for the U.S., wasn't there a little Supreme Court decision in this area?
 I did ask a question about copyright--any responses?
