    Hi,

    I have seen a story in several places, online and off. It always says, "author unknown"

    How can I investigate if it's copywrited?

    Thanks!

    I would start with Google.

    You might try Snopes.com if it's one of those fwd:fwd:fwd email thingies.

    You can try to search on a particular unique phrase within the text.
