Tom, I must also point out that this thread has been hijacked into the tired old debate about is "Champagne" a protected name and not the original subject which was:

Doesn't the tone of these ads (plainly and cleverly constructed to play off the fears of people to "do the right thing" in social contexts they are uncomfortable in) revolt you? And, isn't the use of the term "official" as in "The Official Champagne of the Millenium Celebration" at least immoral if not illegal under FTC truth in advertizing guidlines?

I realize you probably haven't seen the ads in question but they are premium examples of American Cultural Warfare Propaganda at its most virulent.

Love and have and sell your books, Roberto
