Well, ya know, if traditional stories can be considered "cultural and
intellectual property", then there's a whole lot of lawsuits a-coming.
Didja hear that Disney? The "Eastern Culture Group, representing Chinese
and related cultures" is coming after you for Mulan.
Watch out White Wolf - The people of the Carpathian mountains want their
rights to vampiric folklore recognized!
And X-files? The American people want you to pay them exorbitant sums for
using their cultural heritage of UFO abduction stories & conspiracy theory
to fuel your plot.
