Anyone Here from Greece?
Maybe my sense of humor is very rude and insensitive, but I find this very funny. It reminds me of how I can't call myself an environmentalist because if I do people assume I buy Algore's global warming crap.
It is funny.
And I laughed.

No, it's real. It's legitimate, too; I think the term "lesbian" as applied to homosexual women is derived from the term "Lesbian" as applied to any person from Lesbos, and I think it does have to do with Sappho. So, it's on one hand hilarious, and on the other hand they have a point. The problem is, point or not, the lawsuit is stupid, because how do you remove a word that is such an integral part of our lexicon? Making a fuss just makes it work. They should just forget it.
EDIT: I'm right. Sappho was from Lesbos, which is where we get the term lesbian. For another laugh, check out this list of "Notable Lesbians."
