A company's use of a likeness of a Scout in Uncomplementary

John Durbetaki (JohnDurbetaki@WORLDNET.ATT.NET)

There is a company called Rainbow Technologies which has just sent me a
mail piece with a likeness of a Scout named "Timmy" (a blue and gold
neckerchief with a dark long sheeve shirt and blue hat with yellow
piping and the boy performing a Boy Scout salute) on the cover. The mail
piece then proceeds to declare that "Timmy" loves to copy software and
sells it to his friends and if you buy this company's copy protection
solutions you can stop this sort of thing.

When you look at the images closely, they have taken the trouble to make
things a bit different, as there is no insignia, but the Boy Scout
Salute is plain as day.

Does anyone know who would be the appropriate person at national to
forward this piece to? I have sent a number of emails to the company,
but I want to forward the mail piece to Irving.
