Lawyers Suing over Generic Name Use

This is just a mockery of the US legal work process, in my opinion. Little company buys a domain name "seattle-mortgage-loans.com", soon after a company named "Seattle Mortgage" sends a cease and desist letter. In fact, they don't want this small company to come up in the top results for the term seattle mortgage. This is just very sad. Thread over at Search Engine Watch Forums named Little Guy Sued Over Generic Name Use.
