I completely share the contempt for the litigious attitude. In a way, it's
too bad that the laws require people to go after the little guys if you
don't want it thrown out of court when you go after the big guys -- though I
understand the reason for it.
Still, I have tremendous respect for how the Looneys handled the "Search,
Ponder and Play" situation:

(Be sure to click on the link to Kristin's letter.)
So I'm sure they'll handle this situation with similar sensitivity. I hope
the woman who did this nice creative thing is as approachable as the guy at
Covenant was.
