No one in their right mind would confuse NPG Nature -- one of the leading

 I am not a lawyer, but reading lawsuit at:
 http://ttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/v?pno=91171672pty=OPPeno=1

 The company that is trying to get the Sole Trademark for NPG Music Club
 may not win. There argument is flawed. They argue that they own the
 trademark for Nature since 1978, and Paisley Park didn't start the NPG
 Music Club till 2003, but there publishing company Nature
 Publishing Group didn't start doing business till 1999. Paisley Park owns
 trademarks to NPG and New Power Generation since as early as 1991 and have
 been in business a lot longer under NPG Records.

 But then again I ain't a lawyer, I decided I liked fixing computers more
 so what do I know?!?! LOL -Derek

 Great way to start the weekend.

I certainly hope this is just Prince's PR machine keeping this nonsense

Anybody who thought he'd actually talk to Ryan or the contestants was
obviously discounting 25 years worth of attitude, posturing and egotism
that is, was and may always be him.

Besides, who the hell is SIMON, Mr. Rude/Egotistical himself, to call
