Virgin's second response regarding virginfuels.org news site

Received December 20, 2006

Dear Darlene, 

Thank you for this and your email of 18 December.

Our real concern is your choice of domain name. We accept your assertion that you do not to intend to infringe our rights and we appreciate that you agree with and are supporting a cause that is very important to us. However, the domain name you are using to do this is confusing and misleading and that is problematic for both of us. Indeed, your letter of 12 December (sic - letter sent November 12, 2006) provides evidence of such confusion in that you state you have received employment applications and investment proposals presumably intended for Virgin Fuels. As your site is about a whole lot more than just Virgin Fuels it is also in your interests to use a name which reflects that.

In the circumstances, if you agree to transfer legal ownership of virginfuels.org to us we would be prepared to reimburse the official costs you incurred in registering this domain name. You could then use this money to purchase a new domain name which does not contain the VIRGIN trade mark. The transfer can be done electronically and should be free.

 I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours Sincerely,

Mark James
