Think Tom Petty's gonna sue?
I keep hearing bits and pieces of a comparison between a RHCP song and a Tom Petty song, and the notion Petty might sue. Apparently, Dani California sounds like Mary Jane's last dance.

Now what I've heard of the songs sounds similar, but similar isn't lawsuit worthy (Or WCW, Nirvana, and Nickelback would all be out of business). Anyone actually listen to these two songs? I could give a fuck less about Petty, and I don't listen to RHCP...

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs.”
