Hi Jack,

This is my understanding of the MC v MV logocentric chess moves, ala synopsis:

Monster Cable objects to the logo

Monster Vintage offers to change the logo

Monster Cable demands name and logo (and more!)

Monster Vintage says no

Monster Cable sues, the logo is part of the claims

Monster Vintage wins change of venue

Monster Cable withdraws suit, w/all claims and objections, including the logo

(MV does at some point in the middle of this scenario change the logo, but not due to any order or agreement)

I then see the logo and agree with Monster Cable's heartburn regarding the logo, and even though Monster Cable has withdrawn the suit and Monster Vintage might be in the clear to use it I try to get it changed. I think it is the right thing to do, IMHO Monster Cable had fair right and a good reason to protest the logo.

Here is a key point! Seems that Monster Cable would have let Monster Vintage keep the logo, if they would have agreed to be under the Monster thumb. That seems to make the objection to dilution, tarnishment and confusion a question of prior insincerity on the part of MC.

I am still wondering if the recent phone call from Dave Tognotti to Monster Vintage was ex parte contact?
