What corporations?  You have a list of all parties who might
conceivably have a trademark infringement problem with us?  Are you
willing to do the work of tracking down and contacting all of these
people?

If not, I'm still going to go for "remove the games" as the only
*effective* solution since pie-in-the-sky suggestions like yours
avail us naught.
