Feh! Don't spread that garbage here. =P It is a trademark and is thus limited to protecting using the mark for the promotion of products; and even then only within their major product category. If you aren't selling anything, it is just a word. Don't call it a copyright, that is for complete works. And a service mark is for branding a company or service rather than a product. You can't call any consumable "Coke" but a few hundred years of steel workers are still allowed to call the molten mass of coal and iron "coke".

And now, back to your regularly scheduled perl programming, already in progress...

As if I didn't know it was a joke, dad =P
