email to Organic Consumers dot Org

In response to this email that I received, I replied via their web site:

Subject: "Fair Trade" as a trademark

I told you guys years ago that you need to start getting trademarks. For example, get a trade mark of "True Organic" and then YOU can set the standards of what "True Organic" means. You could have gotten the "Fair Trade" trademark and then YOU could define who could use it and as such you could define what it means.

You need to take a lesson from the Free Software Foundation and Richard Stallman. He uses copyright law to ensure that the open software remains open. Its not that hard to do

Get off your ass and do something beside just bitch.
