Yeppers the real Andy has every right to sue, and he should. just think tho, this guy got about 1200 votes Thank goodness he lost ----orginal message----- Message: 6 Date: Mon, 13 Nov 2006 13:04:37 -0600 From: "K. Darden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Pettiness in Mayberry To: [email protected] Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed I can see both sides of this one. As a legality, Andy does certainly have the right to protect his name, and to see his name used for political purposes would be one of those cases where I can see why he would want to step in. I had someone make mocking, derogatory images of my website and post them to a Mayberry list, and I certainly made every effort to squelch that. But when you see folks in Mayberry acting petty and heavy handed because they THINK someone MIGHT be POSSIBLY getting in on a little of their action, it is ugly to see them turn petty and even vindictive. It certainly is not the way Andy would have handled things on the show, is it? Too bad real life rarely imitates "The Andy Griffith Show." Maybe Hollywood has taken its toll on more folks than just Andy...
