- Well, here's what I think. I think that you can use the MST name pretty
- much all you want. However, if you advertise an event and use the MST
- name or their characters in the promotion you should expect the people
- at MST to cover themselves. MST is an up and coming phenomenon that doesn't
- need a bunch of people upset because they paid to meet the cast at a party
- and they didn't show up. This is especially true once MST was informed of
- the party. To know that this thing was being promoted with their name
- even though they weren't going to be there and then not say anything would be
- pretty negligent and dumb. I've never seen them do anything to suggest
- they are stupid.

- For what it's worth
