It seems here in the U.S. Federal Law protects the Olympic name from "misuse." A row over a Bush political TV spot is noted in espn.com article.
Of particular note is the last paragraph:
An act of Congress, last revised in 1999, grants the USOC exclusive rights to such terms as "Olympic," derivatives such as "Olympiad" and the five interlocking rings. It also specifically says the organization "shall be nonpolitical and may not promote the candidacy of an individual seeking public office."
Exclusive rights to the word "Olympic" is plainly without precendent or reason and just plain stupid. Oops, I suppose I just gave the USOC 4 "legitimate" reasons to possibly seek legal action against me. Olympic.
Out of the 126 writers whose handwriting they surveyed, I'm sure at least a few of them have the "messy" and "inconsistent" handwriting that some people think they have.
