Although a C with a circle around it (not just parenthesis) is the
"unviersal formalism" under the Universal Copyright Convention, the word
"Copyright" is good enough not just for US protection but, as I
understand it, also for protection in most other UCC country where that
word is an acceptable formality and also in many UCC countries which do
not require any notice on the work.  By adding "All rights reserved" or
the Spanish equivalent, you also get protection in some South American
countries.
