As some of you know (and others don't believe) I own a mainstream advertising company. Yes, one with real staff and real clients...specializing in retail chain advertising... (Plus, my work in the adult arena)

I can say, with actual experience in this area, yes you would have a case against the offending company. But then the reality hits home... to sue anyone takes a considerable amount of cash...I have spent upwards of $10,000 on a simple Cease and Desist letter from our attorney. And then if you want to go the next step and serve papers...you need to fight the case in the offending company's jurisdiction. (This is to prevent companies from taking legal action against competitors simply to make them travel to your jurisdiction, and bankrupting them in the process with all the legal costs).

But enough of the legal mumble jumble...my advice, for what it's worth...pen your own Cease and Desist letter...sometimes that is enough..and if that doesn't work...continue to slam the bastards on this bbs. But on the other hand, there are those who believe that any publicity is good publicity...oh, this is so confusing.
