This makes me long for the "Santa is Real" stencils that were all over the city for a while a few years ago.

Dot aht vs. Dot Art

IANAL, but if I were one I would be jumping in here. Not that it's a bad idea to put Dorchester on the front page of the Globe for its art rather than its crime; clearly that's a good idea! And the name is cute. But the fake Dorchester accent that inspires the humorous title of Dot Aht seems to me to infringe on a prominent, long-standing organization called Dot Art, officially the Dorchester Community Center for the Visual Arts (http://blog.dotart.org/about_us). Good fodder for the intellectual property attorneys, I guess, unless Dot Art has a sense of humor about the likely confusion.
