RE: [DMCForum] FW: Google Alert - delorean

["Jack Stiefel" <jackstiefel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

According to how I read the US Patent offices searches, the original DMC
logo was cancelled in 1985, while DeLorean was abandoned in 2003.  DMC
Houston registered a dead trademarks, not public domain. In fact DeLorean
still owns the rights to DeLorean Automobile Company, not sure what happens
after death. 

They have a claim to the ownership rights by registration in the US Patent
and Trademark offices in the same way Ford owns their name.  How more cut
and dry does it have to be?  If you register Marc Levy in the US patent
office, and they allow it, then you have the legal right to say you own it.

Ehem!!!

"In 1995, a Texas company, which had previously
purchased the inventory of car parts made in
DeLorean's factory in Northern Ireland, acquired the
rights to the DeLorean name and logo."

Looks like the authors source was none other than
James.  He still on this list??  I wonder if James
provided them with any proof of this claim of rights.

But then again, Anyone can claim anything they want
and if it goes ununchallengedong enough it becomes
accepted as true.  Squatters rights of
inintellectualroperty.  If nothing else, In the event
there is ever a legal chchallengeo this claim there
are continued posts from me to these lists to
demonstrate that it was not accepted.  :)
