    Re: [mru] OT: Stolen Logo



    An email campaign perhaps? Definately looks like the dude that used to be on
    your website - I wonder if they thought you weren't using since it's not up
    in everyone's face anymore.

    Still sucks big time - do we need to start are Nerd Boy Defense Fund?

    Dear All,

    These guys have stole my Nerd Boy. They use him in a commercial even.

    <A HREF ="http://www.asmallurl.com/2B">http://www.asmallurl.com/2B</A>

    I have had the various domains and the Nerd Boy since 1997 and 1998. So
    now I have to call my lawyer I guess. They have only had their domain since
    2001. This could get interesting and expensive. I paid a lot to have him
    made in the first place.

    They are in the DC area and I spoke there for Verio at a conference as a
    Keynote Speaker and had a about 10 or 12 Nerd Boys that I used for one of my
    presentations. I wonder if they got the idea then.

    Sheesh!!!!

    Thank you,

    Jeffrey R. Collins

    Dear Jeff,

    I started using the "new" Nerd Boy in 2000 as shown by this link:

    http://web.archive.org/web/200010210...om/index1.html

    Look familiar....your second link for them has part of my site on it. I
    was smart enough to even update the Copyright Date. Something I will now be
    checking on all of my sites this week.

    Thank you,

    Nerd Boy
