In the nautical environment the vessel that is less maneuverable is given the right of way. Yet in the air environment all crashes are the fault of those least able to defend themselves.
I don't know if the nautical environment has a rule like "You shouldn't fucking be here. And that is NOT a suggestion." The air one certainly does.
While an interesting benchmark, it doesn't, of course, account for the hundreds of millions spent to produce and market the trio of films, or the fact that Disney splits box-office grosses with theater owners.
In other words, nebulously defined value passes arbitrary round figure; no actual story here.
Many years ago (1990s) I took a guided trip round Chicago and one of the things was a building with that was square or rectangular section with a sloping roof at such an angle that it was a diamond shape.
The guide said the angle was almost perfectly wrong - just flat enough that snow would build up... until all of a sudden it wouldn't and there'd be an avalanche.
And why would being the only people with a particular surname help? If anything it'd make them easier to find.
In case you've forgotten, the original claim was that somebody stopped others from using their shiny, new English-as-Queen-Victoria name, and it's still bollocks.
It's not a case of diverging, it's more that national standards were only set down after the miserable puritan buggers had sailed off in a huff - hence a Norfolk gallon might be different to a Yorkshire one.

I didn't expect some kind of Spanish inquisition.

A database? Any particular colour?
He is, but in his case the consequences aren't that somebody dies.
It's Rey, you stupid twat.
Would you take someone's scholarly musings on Dickens seriously if he kept referring to "Nickolas Nickelby"? Actually, I doubt you'd notice.

I doubt it. If it was it'd show up as *&(TM)&* or something like that.

The solution, IIRC, was auxiliary heaters.

What? I thought their main branches were in London & New York.
Sometimes the payment is not getting shot.
Found the American!

... or British people over the age of 80.
Did you even read the post you're replying to? People's names.

Legally, it doesn't. If they used any other [former] employee's name it wouldn't either.
Hence the court's decision.
Their's allot of it a bout.
Clearly not, or more of them would.
Not sure what that's even supposed to mean.
Apple have no more right to the name "Steve Jobs" than Pepsi do.
If I had a beer for every time someone mentioned Sam Adams in this thread, I'd be posting as much sense as you.
Your premises do not lead to your conclusion.
Fucking hell, Prince Charles is posting on slashdot!
And with all due respect, you're talking out of your royal arse. There's Barbara (actress) and Bobby (Rugby player) just off the top of my head.
If it's in England and it's beer they can.
