:-) Yeah Art, we indeed gaine a lot of knowledge in high-tech field,
but that doesn't necesserily relates to what you said.
In Israel protecting intellectual property isn'tquite straight-forward
thing as it probably would be in US, though our government is still
working trying to release a well defined lwas in this respect.
I anyway will check that as you suggested, but I suspect even if there
is something making me more easily to protect my imaging here, anyone
outside of my country may steal and will not be liable to any
panishment since the cpyright will be only valid for domestic action.
Am I wrong ?
