Free Intellectual Property Casebook

[tranquility]

I wanted to post in the appropriate forums, but didn't want to choose which one so I'll put it here. At:

Is a FREE casebook you can download under the Creative Commons license for Intellectual Property. I have not read it yet, but it looks awesome. For FREE!

But wait, there's more! edit:

An accompanying text of selected statutes and treaties is at:

Meh. Decent book, but I thought the movie was better.

That's because it was based on the comic book:

[You Are Guilty]

Heh.

There is a guy here down under the Manhattan Bridge who writes half a dozen or so comics while still maintaining his practice (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_Soule). What a gig.

Once I figure out how the stupid locks on my basement sex dungeon work, I'll be "taking over" his job for him.

Can anyone help out an old man?

I tried to start reading the casebook on my weekend off and found it unsatisfactory. You see, I've read a few casebooks in my time, but, they were all of the olden age--paper and ink. I could read them and mark where I was and underline (actually, use three different colored markers and a fine pencil to write in the margin) when appropriate. My current .pdf reader does not allow such folderol.

Does anyone know of a low overhead, no data to-the-Man, reader/writer**rithmatic .pdf client I can mark and add notes to electronically?

Even if I have to pay, it would make my old man brain happy to be able to manipulate the file. Maybe I should do some sort of transfer to a word processor file and work from there?

I know there are many here who do these 1's and 0's better than I (Well, maybe not the 1's and 0's; but, the modern way.), can you help a man in need?
