Re: [GZG] Full Thrust Lite

I'll be go to heck what I did wrong, but it was 'dozens' of
software/rulesets I was thinking, including Traveller Lite, Photoshop
Lite,
etc.

I was PRETTY sure there were other cases. J, had me going a bit;
obviously,
it made sense. ;->=

Allan, thanks for squaring me away; as much as I live on Google, it's
embarassing to get caught flubbing.

By the way, for those many who have this pet peeve, like I said, 'lite'
is
starting to make sense to me, but I do understand, and have often felt,
your pain.

I found quite a few, actually. Vari-Lite, E-Z-Lite, Macromedia Flash
Lite, Lava Lite, etc.

During a Google search, I found a reference to the book "Trademark &
Copyright Disputes: Litigation Forms and Analysis" on Google Books.
Part of the text said, "For example, take the LITE trademark of Miller
(U.S. Trademark Registration No. 1385379). That trademark is limited
to the exact logo of the word "lite".

I found another reference that Miller tried to trademark "lite" for
use with beer, but could not against other "light" beers. So, they
instead had to trademark "Miller Lite".

So Miller doesn't have the trademark on "lite", just on that
particular logo and "Miller Lite".
