I think whether the Red Cross likes it or not, their emblem has become the universal sign for medical help and that's not gonna change. Wasting time and resources trying to get it changed is a big mistake, and if they keep trying they're gonna be the receiver of another universal sign:

I think the Red Cross has a point as well as Matchroo (sp?)

By law it should be protected, but the Red Cross has become an undiscrible part of every culture. I wonder if ambulances are allowed to use it?

Anyway, I would like to here Derek's thoughts on this since he has dealt with IP issues before and intellectual rights.

The sign is NOT red crosses property. That sign has been used as a medical sign long before red cross was established. All the defendants lawyers have to do is dig up evidence of prior use.

I was playing operation flashpoint two days ago and I noticed that the medic sitting next to me had a white armband with a red circle and a white cross on it instead of a red cross. I wonder if that was done for this very reason.
