Breast: The Original White Milk

I'm glad to report that The National Pork board has redeemed themselves in this issue and raised money for the Mother's Milk Bank of Ohio to show its support of breastfeeding moms. What a happy ending!

To quote Jennifer's blog:

There's nothing wrong with protecting your trademark folks. Many of the posts that I read stated that the Pork Board had no business bugging me because I'm just a poor, innocent, breastfeeding promoting mom. (Some went so far in deifying me that I half expected Emmitt to walk on water in the bath tub.) I'll say it again...there is NOTHING wrong with a big business protecting their trademark. My argument was that they should do it by hiring a lawyer that won't make asinine assumptions about the site in question and that they could do it a little more politely.

I'd also like to echo her thanks to the important people and organizations who helped her through this debacle: Amy Hooker of Maven Communications , Brian Moore of Brian J Moore and Associates Her hosting company, Mor Designs who increased her bandwidth to keep the site from crashing and the many lawyers and law firms that contacted me to offer pro bono services, particularly the Electronic Freedom Foundation since they exist for exactly this type of issue.
