Can't speak for anyone else, but since copyright laws protects works that are presented in "fixed form," my thoughts don't qualify at all!!!
Anyone interested in informing themselves about what copyright law says, what it protects, and what it doesn't should visit copyright.gov -- I've spent a few profitable hours there over the years!

But I did read as far as music is concerned, that even if it is not written down, a song or music is still copyrighted. And that is kind of where I was going. (But that wouldn't meet the 'fixed form' qualification, so I may have no idea what I am talking about.
