Copyright cops on drugs.

The drug company that makes Panexa (from whom I am using this image without permission) is wholly fictional, yet that didn't stop the copyright crusaders at Cafe Press from removing t-shirts emblazoned with the brand from its site. Carrie at StayFree! magazine says her collaborator Jason Torchinsky created Panexa awhile back to poke fun at the over-pharmacization of our culture, and an ad for the faux drug ran in her publication. Their reason for removal of Panexa products: trademark infringement.
