Do you?  According to the _The American Heritage® Dictionary of the • English

That may well be, but Chris has managed to back his opinion - you have not.


I am not a lawyer, but I'm pretty sure the legal terms "donor" and "funded • by"
are vastly different.  I also think you're oversimplifying.

Donor, which TLC (well, at least Lego Direct) clearly are, implies that • they

"Funded by" implies total funding, covering all expenses.  Which TLC is • clearly
