JavaScript Drag and Drop - Dragging Copies

I am attempting to create a robust drag-and-drop event scheduler. I have almost all of it complete, but am stuck on one element: how to drag a copy of an item.

You can see the current version running here: jsfiddle

What I would like to be able to happen is this:

  1. When a LeadIn event is dragged from the Events column to a Screen column, the original LeadIn event should stay in the Events column.
  2. When a LeadIn event is dragged from a Screen column to another Screen column, the event should be moved to the new column.
  3. When a LeadIn event is dragged from a Screen column to the Events column, the event should be removed from the Screen column and not appear in the Events column.
  4. There should always be only one LeadIn event in the Events column.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, here is my current code:
