apav: I didn't like Citron's name-dropping in that release.

That was just Citron trying to get itself on more people's screens due to ticker hits in news searches. They really have nothing to do with those companies they mentioned, they just made an obvious statement without much substance.

It's a new trick because the Internet is new, but it's old enough that it was covered in a news story by CBS Marketwatch or TheStreet.com or someone. It's a cheesy abuse of others' trademarks.

Then again, no publicity is bad publicity. Here's hoping tomorrow the netter crowd decides to turn its money-spewing firehose on us.
