Plus trademark squatting (Robert Smith must be scratching his head).
"Last year, Ms. Tighe's Uniting Against Lung Cancer got a letter from Komen requesting it change the name of the charity's "Kites for a Cure" fund-raiser, a beach event featuring hand-decorated kites, to "Kites for a Cause," or another name. Komen later warned her against any use of pink in conjunction with "cure.""

Does anyone really think Susan G. Komen, Inc, really wants a cure for breast cancer or any other cancer? Lots of administrators would be out of jobs.....
