"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing"
Edmund Burke


"lamps made from empty bottles"

This is where her arguments fall apart. She relies upon Brilliance Audio, Inc., v Haights Cross Communications, Inc but that case covers different issues that she atempts to use here. In Brilliance, the trademark was affixed to a product repackaged by Haights. Here, a genuine bottle with a genuine trademark is being used to make the lamp. The product of her client was the liquid inside the bottle, or in some cases a can. The container has not been altered except for a hole drilled in the bottom. The product, the liquid, has been consumed and is not being resold nor has it been altered. Only the packaing is being used.
