At least he can claim to have been asked to work on 'Avatar'.<br /><br />You would have a very good case for infringement, MD. That's for sure. :)BernardLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09722619048888613647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1405576651020920367.post-55318456069100988322010-03-06T07:27:12.727-08:002010-03-06T07:27:12.727-08:00It happens.

I mean, Cameron could have paid the guy initially use the idea and had plenty of money left over.
