The story has now been picked up by other news agencies from the geeky http://www.techdirt.com/articles/20100803/00013910465.shtml to the mainstream http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-10851394 all of which pointing out this delightfully snarky letter. I for one discovered this story not online but in reading the Sydney Morning Herald today which calls it a "politely feisty response".

Interesting - the NY Times used the same language. Someone got it from someone, wonder which article came first (or if there was a 3rd in the mix).
