Listen to this podcast, spread the word.  This will affect artists of every sort around the world, not just in the US.  If you are an artist (professional or otherwise) and you value your work and your rights--look into the Orphan Works Bill.

Wouldn't be necessary except that copyright which by constitutional declaration is limited seems to be extended everytime micky mouse comes up for expiration. The intent of the legislation is correct old works disconnected from their authors should not subject the users of such material to law suits. However, how one goes about legislating such protection is tricky. Actually the best way is to leave standing copyright protection in place and repeal the Sunny Bono Act. But that's not gunna happen.
