Re: use, plus Disney mystery

[walter biscardi] "by law they are required to"

By corporate practice they're required to, yes.

But "by law?" Nah. They could have (a) pretended not to know about it; (b) given a license.

Disney goes after high-profile cases that make them look bad for the same reason the IRS goes after rock stars: obtain compliance by creating fear.

But Disney's protectiveness is, imho, excessive and counterproductive. I'll betcha a ton of people who saw those CT daycare broadcasts decided to cancel their trips to Disneyworld. There are other theme parks.

Imagine the good pr that would have come from Disney going the other direction on the daycare incident, and saying "We're going to donate X rolls of wallpaper to any daycare provider in the country that wants to brighten its walls."
