This thing is all over the net now and I think Tekton is simply doing damage control now because the threat of legal actiion backfired. The thread over at Audiholics in interesting and quite a few people are not accepting Eric Alexander's spin on the situation...

To be clear, even today I have email from Eric asking to have his lawyer talk to mine. What they would talk about, he won't tell.
I bet (guessing) it's to get you to agree not review anymore of his speakers. That's been the goal all along. Piss off the measurement guys to get his speakers out of there.

Folks who tout such patents as some sort of confirmation of their expertise are more often than not just engaging in the sort of chest-beating exercise typical of the "legend in my own mind" sort of egotism.

Somebody correct me if I'm mistaken: Wouldn't such a request normally come directly from his attorney?

EDIT: I WAS mistaken! Quoting @Dialectic in post #1025 (and, THANK YOU for the correction!):

"No, in the United States, every state has a version of what is commonly known as the "no contact" rule. If a third party is represented by its own counsel, your lawyer can get in trouble with the state bar for communicating directly with the third party instead of through that party's counsel."

It could be just a fishing expedition to determine what legal firm he may have to go up against.

Unusual . Usually you just get a certified letter from an attorney directly discussing the legal issue.
Yes, I'm pretty sure the normal thing is the attorney contacts YOU, and then you connect them to your own attorney.

But usually there's also some kind of recognizable legal issue, not just a misunderstanding about how a Klippel works.

I would advise against doing something like that.
Here, something like this would be seen as extremely dubious behavior, and the fact that @Eric Alexander has a lawyer who gets involved in such dubious games speaks for itself...
