Definitely not from Martha Stewart: "wrestling with a pig is futile because you're going to get dirty and the pig likes it." ANY engagement with that guy is going to get you dirty. The guy feels threatened by you and your business. And you feel threatened by him. You could try to talk to him about co-existing in the same town with one business complementing the other, but you need to lose the antagonistic attitude first. As others have suggested: best to take the high road and find ways to mind your own business. Customers should be able to figure out who the real "clown" is.
