Subject:	Pork industry suing the Lactivist?!?!
Date:	February 2, 2007 at 6:59 pm PST

The Lactivist dot blogspot dot com (vegsource wont let me post the website, but I think this is important for BFers to know...so I hope it's ok) was selling a comical bf t-shirt that said 'The Other White Milk'. The pork industry, however, doesn't think it's funny and wants her to stop using that phrase because it's detrimental to the pork industry (whatever)...here's a little something from their letter...
"In addition, your use of this slogan also tarnishes the good reputation of the National Pork Board's mark in light of your apparent attempt to promote the use of breastmilk beyond merely for infant consumption, such as with the following slogans on your website in close proximity to the slogan "The Other White Milk." "Dairy Diva," "Nursing, Nature's Own Breast Enhancement," "Eat at Mom's, fast-fresh-from the breast," and "My Milk is the Breast."

Now I know that we're probably not the ones supporting the pork industry anyways, but spread the word, we need to let them know how stupid this lawsuit is. Do what you can ;)
