From the Dark Side--Mike Rowe Donates Legal Fund to Hospice
Remember Canadian teenager Mike Rowe? He put up a web site for his company with the domain name "mikerowesoft.com" which generated a legal attack from none other than the richest man in the world's company, Microsoft, for copyright infringement. That's right, Microsoft believed that Mike Rowe using his own name was a copyright infringement. People donated $6000 to his legal defense but Rowe reached a settlement with Microsoft. So he has stated that he will donate most of it, $5250, to a hospice for terminally ill children accordingg to this AP article on Excite News. [Dana Baggett]
