Am I the only one that thinks this could be a huge issue? Video game nerd alert. It seems the Red Cross Society has the copyright to of all things — the red cross.

Here is a link to a pdf document of a letter from The Red Cross to what I assume is a game development company in Vancouver, Canada. Has anyone played a game where they didn’t pick up a little pack with a red cross on it to replenish their health?
