I don't agree with this.

The problem is that you cannot produce anything out of thin air.
Saying "I created a story" is a metaphor. You took physical objects and
modified them
according to laws of physics, for instance, took paper and put ink on it in
certain patterns.

This is why I used the marble example several emails before. You always do
stuff
with physical property.

Also, I do not have a right to what you produced - I never said that. I
have the right to
my physical property, you have the right to yours. An idea is not property.
It is as
simple as that.
