Does it bother anybody that if you have enough money you can buy a name that, in some past time, had a good reputation and use it as if you are that same company and can trace your roots back to the founders?
Specifically, I can think of:
o Springfield Armory
o 1911A1
o Luger
o ArmaLite
These all are owned by companies who copyrighted those names and use them as trademarks?
Am I being hypercritical? It just kinda burns me up!

If you have to shoot a man, shoot him in the guts, it may not kill him... sometimes they die slow, but it'll paralyze his brain and arm and the fight is all but over Wild Bill Hickok
Remember: When you attempt to rationalize two inconsistent positions, you risk drowning as your own sewage backs up.
