EDITOR--St Clair and Klein note in the letter above (and at www.bmj.com/cgi/ eletters/321/7257/362#EL3) that Merlo has not commented siglo21cigars on the Marlboro look-alike squirt gun that I wrote about in the BMJ''s theme issue on tobacco.[1] They also wonder whether I have received a reward from Philip Morris, given Merlo''s claim that "In 1995 [Philip Morris] began to reward those who bring siglo21cigars trademark violations to our attention, and this practice continues today."Before the BMJ published my siglo21cigars short piece on the squirt gun along with a photograph of it[1] I brought this toy to the attention of tobacco industry lawyers on two occasions. On 2 March 1999, while testifying at h trial in a lawsuit against tobacco companies, I presented the squirt gun to the court. The lawyer representing Philip Morris (Bradley Lerman, of the law firm Winston and Strawn) objected but siglo21cigars was overruled by the judge. Lerman then cross examined me about the squirt gun, candy cigarettes resembling tobacco cigarettes, and copyright infringement.[2] At a deposition on 19 May 2000, in another tobacco lawsuit, I again brought the squirt gun to the attention of tobacco company lawyers. I gave them a photograph of the product (identical to that published in the BMJ), and I told them where I bought it. The lawyer representing Philip Morris (Murray Garnick, of the law firm Arnold and Porter) then asked me questions about efforts by the company to protect its trademarks and copyrights.[2]
