[wdvltalk] RE: site comments please

2003-02-24 Thread Joseph Harris
Sorry Ben,

I gave the wrong impression.I was just attempting to say that it was a
valid worry, and we were already seeking advice and preparing to entice 'the
real one' into being nice to us.   It was a fair point for you to make and I
took it as friendly advice.

I am genuinely interested  in thoughts on the subject.   The only real
challenge that I can think of might be 'passing off' and there  is no way we
are doing that.   It is no more than parody.   Of course it is also cross
border, which complicates.

But if they seriously objected  I reckon we would have to bow to the big
bucks.   That is why I would be happy to learn if there might be any other
grounds on which we are vulnerable.

Also keen to have comment on all aspects of the site.

Again, sorry for being too cryptic.

Joseph

Thanks Rudy,

I will pass this on to my co-author in India who did most of the work on the
site - I did some of the writing.   The book it is selling is itself
humourous (or humorous) and it seemed a good idea to continue the theme.

Don't forget to set your background default to white.  For those of us
strange people who don't have a different color than white as our normal
background it makes webpages that forget to set a white default look funky.

Ben,

That is one we are looking at, of course.But what would be the precise
illegality?Obviously they have deep pockets;  if they felt worried or
offended no doubt they would act.   And we will find out before we get too
comfortable with the name.

I was rather hoping for more detail comments, however.
