Quoting from [1]:

	4.1 Non-trivial originality (Durham)

	In Durham Industries, Inc. v. Tomy Corp.,21 the Second Circuit
	Court of Appeals stated that copyright’s applicability to
	derivative works is subject to the limitation that “the
	original aspects of a derivative work must be more than
	trivial.”
	...
	However, the Alfred Bell court considered non-trivial
	variation to be a requirement of the originality standard, and
	merely a restatement of the principle that, to be original, a
	work must be “recognizably [the author’s] own.”
	...

	4.2 Substantial difference (Gracen)

Chapter 1 -- The story so  far:
In the beginning the Universe was created. This has  made  a  lot  of
people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
