I don't think he really cares about the Sam logos. IMHO they just provided
a convenient "something to complain about" when he wanted to take down
another of my pages - specifically the one with evidence that he'd been
posting to this list as samsboss and proof that he'd lied about it; if
he'd complained about that specifically then he couldn't ever have
expected the University to have taken him seriously.

But a minor breach of copyright, oh yes they can take that seriously
alright, and pull the plug on my webserver (before even checking that he's
even the one that actually owns the logos which he's objecting to me using
- which he isn't.) Very sneaky.

And then he has the sheer audacity to claim he wasn't trying to cause a
fuss or get me into trouble, but all he really wanted was to make sure the
breach of copyright to be sorted out as quickly as possible - well
OBVIOUSLY the quickest and quietest way isn't just to email me personally
and ask for it to be removed, oh no. He has to straight to the top by
emailing the CS [1] and threatening the University with legal action, such
a pleasant chap he is. As if they're responsible for my webserver anyway,
duh.

Helpful quick-response solution there - doesn't that just so corroborate
his other story, NOT.
