who would dispute that fark.com could hold some kind of trademark on the word "farking" or "fark" for that matter.
There is nothing original in fark.com's use of

Joe Six Pack may use open formats, but do you want to see his home movie with his family drinking and doing donuts in his mud filled yard next to his trailer?

But how do they deal with unfortunate tendency of vacuum tubes to burn out?
Mount them on the front of the case.

What do they do, count body parts? *ewww*
