Besides, something about trademark law says that if you don't protect your trademark, you lose the right to it The difference here is that Perdue (I presume) is a place, and try as they might, Perdue College/University will not be able to trademark the place itself.

Erm - 8 years ago I was 12 yrs old, and wasn't really up on thermodynamics and quantum physics.
My spectrum wasn't too hot with email, either.
I'd have found this really funny if I hadn't read it word for word in an email a week ago.
Oh well, still good for a laugh.
You're joking - His wife is Tove Torvalds?
You'd have to be a karate champion to beat the crap out of the people laughing at your name!
Um - I don't know of a single mainstream UK ISP that has per Mb pricing?
Maybe a few obscure little ones, but definitely none of the mainstream telcos or ISP's.

The ones I like I treat well and they dump me because I treat them good, and they go date the 30 year old grocery bagger down the street.
