I just ran across this at a Langston Hughes site.  You will note the
uncanny resemblance to a note received by our own web caperer, Luke.

     Dear Ms. Diesman,

     We are the literary representatives of the Estate of Langston
Hughes. While we appreciate your interest in poetry of
     Langston Hughes, posting the text of the poems on your site without
permission is copyright infringement.

     We would be happy to allow you to encourage people to read the
poetry of Langston Hughes, but ask that you limit
     the number of poems on your site to five.  You can then let people
know that a wonderful collection is available from
     Alfred A. Knopf.

     Sincerely,

     Chris Byrne
     Harold Ober Associates Incorporated
