Excellent post. I have Negativland's latest album and it's great. Funny, engaging and creative. Their Creative Commons license (the Sampling one) is the only one that was created to fit a particular artist's vision; the others, however good they are, are created more to fit a percieved need than a personal need.

Grumpo is just ripping off more creative thinkers' opinions on copyright. He is bringing nothing new to this debate, just found ideas and rehashed dogma. It's amazing how many IP Maximalists are incredibly derivative writers themselves. :-)
