This represents a new low for IPIX.  I move we initiate the Helmut Dersch
Legal Defense Fund.  I'm willing to contribute US$100 toward this good
cause.  Not kidding, either.  If he has to hire a lawyer to answer this
absurd charge, it's gonna cost a few pounds.  (Hey William Donnelson, know
any good barristers ?)  Obviously, IPIX has the resources for million-dollar
lawsuits against Infinite Pictures and others.  Their strategy obviously is
to win through intimidation.  We in the industry had better stand up against
this pressure wherever possible, or its US NEXT.  Helmut, who has given us
so much for absolutely free, deserves our full support.
