Errr... I know you're joking, but the answer is, in fact, yes. When 
the idea of a nice innocent-looking bunny that was actually more than 
it seemed first popped up in the drawing board I immediately 
associated it with dear Coney from K&K (she's my favourite character 
in the series - just like Maggie in the Simpsons) and thus I proposed 
to use her. It was well received by the rest of the MDDT, so I got in 
contact with Bill Holbrook to ask for permission to use his character.

I explained the situation, assured him that I wouldn't be selling 
anything with Coney (or indeed, using anything but her name and 
characteristics - not even her image) and he agreed to the whole 
thing. I am still very thankful to Bill for allowing us to use little 
Coney. If you care to try, you could look in the archives for the 
first appearance of Coney, and you'll see I put the copyright notice 
and the linkage just in case anyway.

In case you don't care to fight yahoomort (and who could blame you!), 
Coney is copyright Bill Holbrook from here to eternity, used with 
permission and anyone who wants to read the delightful adventures of 
Coney & co can go to http://kevinandkell.com

Hope that helps,
