RE: Copyright, Trademark and the O**C suit

[David Ball <dball@bournemouth.ac.uk>]

Thanks to Samuel Trosow for the explanation.

But what possessed O**C to do this?  If this goes to court they will be a
laughing stock outside the profession as well as inside it.  Lawyers will
earn more money.  The hotel will get acres of publicity, and can simply
change to using "a decimal classification system".

And how many sane people outside the profession have heard of O**C anyway?

With best wishes

David

PS all possible trademarks have been expurgated from the above to avoid the
risk of litigation.
