What do "high priced attorneys" have to do with an oldies act on the lower rung of show biz?

And why is it so hard for the concept that false advertising is illegal to permeate your thick skull?

Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that 500 State employees are double dipping and THAT story gets 3 paragraphs - where as people impersonating the Platters gets a statement from the AG and immediate action.
Priorities - someone needs to hold a class for our polititions on priorities!!

This might be too complex of a concept for you, but "double dipping", as you call it, is not illegal. Copyright infringement is.

Incidentally, you might want to go back to school and learn how to spell.

Maybe we should start going after all the kids using Limewire while we're at it. And book resellers. OH and the people recording music off the radio, because we're not losing thousand of jobs in the state so we have nothing else to worry about.

What are "polititions"?

This bogus act is tantamount to identity theft.

Oh...so you DO know what copyright is and can give examples.

phew! so how exactly are you connecting all this to the state's unemployment rate, and the Attorney General?

If it's not the real Platters, can I pay the $90 with counterfeit money?

Did I say I didn't?

The fact that you have to resort to criticizing users spelling and using a sarcastic tone implies your argument is poor. Not to mention, you avoided my question with posing another one.

Since I am not going to be evasive when asked a direct question, I will answer yours.

It has to do with the fact that this state constantly avoids tackling the important issues they are posed with and diverting to issues that are not going to make much of a difference in the vast majority of voter's lives. They fail to manage to keep big business in this state, yet they persecute entertainers for using a name.

I can't understand how anyone can feel this is an important CT state issue when we have so much more important things that effect a VAST majority of our taxpayers to tackle.

I worded the above post the wrong way: I meant to say you did not address my point, not my question, since there is no direct question there, simply an implied one.

So I will pose it now: should we go wasting time going after the kids using Limewire and the book resellers at fairs around the state?

In my personal opinion, no.

But your metaphor has nothing to do with this article. A better comparison would be asking if the authorities should be concerned by the practice of "baiting and switching"...to which the correct answer remains..."yes".

The state d.o.l. counted 10,000 jobs lost in june and july. They then reported that unemployment improved to 7.8% from 7.9%. Investigate that fraud by state employees.It has cost the taxpaying people of this state who are unemployed 7 weeks of additional benefits. Come on AG you wouldn't even have to walk far to investigate and get your picture taken again for the news.We know how you love to get your picture taken.

Ohhhh! Yes! We are the great! Pretenders! Oooo! Oooo!

Come and pay like the rest of the crowd.. Oooo! Oooo!

We'll sing all the songs!

And take you along!

Come and pay like the rest of the crowd!

According to the online update and my own curious research, this group is legally registered as The Platters, and has the right to use the name - the show must go on!

Calm down Fatso! You're just pissed cuz your fat ass got fired for your past money counterfeiting..

It is my bedtime, and to all, a good Night. Good Night, Connecticut Tippy, Connecticut Sam and his brother, Sam from Connecticut.
