Why?

Lawrence E. Rosen scripsit:

That's what I meant.  I was on the run and didn't have time to look up
the section number or the proper jargon.  At any rate, the whole point of
203 is that no matter what rights you've signed away, you can reclaim
your full authorial rights when the witching hour comes around.  

Thanks, Larry.
