Scott,
First, I thought I did address your issue but quoting the LEGO Lawyers
statement that the donation by Brad Justus DID NOT consititute endorsement or
sponsorship of LUGNET. If that doesn't answer your question I am sorry but I
am at a loss as to what will.
Second, While I think the disclaimer is "messy" from an astetic point of view I
do not find it ambiguous at all. Let me clarify...
Again I Quote:
"That Brad's donation represented neither
sponsorship nor endorsement of LUGNET by LSI, LD, or TLC and that it was a
pure gift."
The key word I see here is "Gift". Here is the definition I have for gift.
Gift: n. 1. Something that is bestowed voluntarily and without compensation.
So this means that the money was given voluntarily to Todd without any expected
compensation in return which an endorsement or sponsorship would.
I am sorry if you think I am waisting my time with a bunch of gibberish that
makes no sense to you but it makes perfect sense to me.
Eric Kingsley.
