GLOWFUR!
1) This is still e-playa. If it looks like commerce, smells like commerce. etc.....
2) Good research Mozy...I'll be glad to provide case law if you like.
3) What do your two full time lawyers (that's just too blatant to ignore) have to say about your ability to prove damages? After you tackle that poor soul on the playa that sewed el-wire into his/her clothing just like they have been doing for years, what exactly do you think they should have to pay you for????

[quote]So whats the first thing you guys in the "burner" community do? Go out and rip open one of our products so that you can figure out how its done.

Um that seems exactly like what the burner community would do.
Funny that there is a thread about this in the playaliscious playawear tribe and david commented in it without mentioning lawyers once.

That's different from the "Show us your tits" yelled from a (slowly) moving Harley-Davidson at Sturgis patent, correct?EB wrote:I have recently patented yelling "Show us your tits" from the back of a (slowly) moving water ski boat. (U.S.Pat #45CF42323400001)

The biker can stomp my ass but you have to pay to watch.
Irony. You're soaking in it.
.............hmmm?
So is this why the promise has not been fufilled?
Boy I feel lousey...I promised the "Gift Jacket" to a friend who couldnt afford beautiful, wonderful, magical things.Especially cause I offered it to her as my Maid of Honor gift. Then Im sent a email a couple months ago saying I could get a pair of leg warmers or a bikin top....nah, thats ok.
How did Grandma put it? "Never look a gift horse in the mouth"
...now I feel like the louse.
~~~~~The End~~~~~

way beyond hinky-stinky. I know some of the Burners who make Glo-Fur, and their product, whatever you may think about buying Playa wear as opposed to making it, is quality stuff. And yes, Virginia, infringement is a valid issue here, but I think bringing suit against a Burner (as opposed to some Chinese knock-off shop) would be some tragically misguided marketing. But that's just my opinion.

I would be pointless to sue an individual for personal infringement. It's not worth it (even if you don't consider the misguided marketing aspect). It costs too much to gain small damages (though I don't think they even have a case).
And threatening it in those cases is just poor taste.

threatening is what you do when the lawyer tells you you don't have a case, but all that adreniline is still coursing through your veins.
