[LM_NET] copyright ??

[sandra carswell <sandracarswell@HOTMAIL.COM>]

I was teaching my 7th graders about copyright law and fair use Monday. Then 
suddenly it dawned on me that my school is having a talent show tomorrow evening. 
How should we have handled the public performance permissions? I'm sure we will be 
in violation of someone's copyright. 
 
On that note, another thought. Many schools play music over the speakers in the gym 
before and between basketball games. Is there a clearinghouse for public 
performance site licenses for music like there is for movies?
