I'm a little, actually a lot, out of it up here with the mountain lions and moose. (Speaking of moose, see my post in Leisure, please). This is a fascinating ruling from the patent/trademark office.
Only thing I can make of things is that the SPW(hat?) wanted to trademark CSS and then rope in all the TCs and SSs, saying nobody could hire a notary without the NNA certification and BKG check (which they already have and it has fattened their bottom line considerably) but now, we would also have to buy separately their CSS designation. When will it end? I'm sure they'll come up with something else to expand their bank account at our expense and of absolutely no value to us.
Also, I wonder how much $$ the greedy NNA wasted hiring these Pasadena lawyers whose web-site boasts: "Award Winning Intellectual Property Law Services." They certainly didn't win any awards on this one, which they probably knew going in and certainly would have know if they'd only done a little research on FGX/NJ! LOL. |
