As I'm sure anybody acquainted with the work of Espy will agree, it would be delightful if a selection of his poetry were released to the public domain. Without such a move, it may be a long time before it receives the acclaim it deserves, a terrible shame. (Incidentally, I feel the same way about my father's song recordings. They are almost worthless to his heirs, but would be a wonderful gift to the world at large.)Unfree (talk) 05:38, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
