Copyrighting an SQL Query

Mike Masnick has posted on an IT contractor who put a copyright notification in a script that executed an SQL query. From the post:

…the district had contracted out the process to a guy who charged them $500 per year, to basically write and then run an SQL query that exported the data. Each year, all he had to do was change the date, but he still charged them $500.
