OT Bill and Fritz, an official reply from Labatt
 

To prove that I am right, and you two aren't, I emailed Labatt, and
asked their take on the Labatt vs. Labatt's issue. As you know, you two
claim that Labatt's is correct. I've stated it hasn't been correct
since the 70's. Anyway, this should steam you two!:

Thank you for your e-mail Curtis and taking the time to leave us your
comments. Our corporate name becomes more one language without the "s"

and
can be used in a consistent manner for French language communication
activities. This issue became more significant when we acquired
breweries
in Italy in the late 1970's and more recently as we expanded our
presence in
Mexico and other South American countries. All of our Labatt products
as of 1970's do not have the 's, and the registered trademark of our
various beers and ales is Labatt. As Labatt's was officially changed to
Labatt, it is no longer part of our registered trademark agreements.


Regards,

Yvette
Labatt Customer Service

10-comments: Hi, I'd like to know about the name change from Labatt's
Blue,
to Labatt Blue, without the 's. Someone in a newsgroup I belong to
contends
that it is Labatt's, I say it's not. Your bottle label proves that,
but,
he's pretty dumb, so I thought that if he heard it from the horse's
mouth,
so to speak.....

Do you know what I thought of when I read this? A little kid bending
forwards, sticking his tongue out and saying NA-NA-NA-NA-NA.

But glad you were finally able to get this thing squared away in your mind
so you can move on already.

Edit...'forward'...not 'forwards'.

I'll bet you could make up a better email from Labatt explaining why it's really
Labatt's!

Since asslicker has long been killfiled I have no idea what he
said...though I can guess it,
The fact is that Labatt's is commonly still used has I proved in numerous
links, unlike his supposed "cow down" or 'schnapps = whiskey' or his degree
from Ga. Tech.

After all of the petty, childish name calling that Fritz does? After
the repeated attacks by Fritz and Bill on this very issue? After they
BOTH called me and idiot, said I was stupid, etc. over this very issue?

So, I take it you don't even believe the response DIRECTLY FROM
LABATT???? I suppose you'll call THEM idiots, and say THEY don't know
what they are talking about?? I gave you the entire response, Fritz.
Please don't tell me that you aren't smart enough to realize that you
were wrong. Killfiled, huh? Then why is it that you respond to every
single post I make????

Hmm, why don't YOU do this John? YOU email Labatt, it's easy go to
http://www.labatt.com Notice, no 's'. There is a place to contact them.
You can either phone them, or email them. YOU ask them. You'll get the
same response!
