In February 1986, the scientist who FBI officials now say was behind the anthrax mailings that killed an Oxford woman and four others, applied for a U.S. copyright for a song about the death of New Hampshire schoolteacher Christa McAuliffe, killed when the space shuttle Challenger exploded.
Bruce Ivins' application for "Christa's Song (Reach for the Stars)" was denied. According to authorities, Ivins committed suicide as he was about to be indicted in connection with the 2001 anthrax attacks.

talk about a study in petty innuendo!
First, the title. Dr. Ivins hasn't been convicted of anything by any criminal or civil court. In fact, there is little evidence to support the instant conviction he did get in the court of public opinion, by his accusers, the New York Post, et al.
Second, the entire story is so stale it has mold. Spores, probably.

I smell pure B.S. I have a good many songs copyrighted and never had any problem with them. One only has a problem if it gets airtime and its plagiarism.
