Default ZZZ Name Change for Sun-N-Fun?

I don't think that's the case it's seems to me it's just zoom being zoom.


I think that I may have found the reason for zzzoom's renaming of the
SnF Fly in.. Check the legal notices on the Sun-n-Fun web site. It
pretty well sums up who and when the SnF name or logo can be
used,interesting reading.


No, such prohibitions generally apply only to those using the names for
marketing purposes. EAA has the same lockup on "Airventure", but they really,
REALLY want everyone to use that term instead of "Oshkosh." Can't see SnF being
any different.

In my opinion, Zoom doesn't refer specifically to Sun N Fun for the same reason
he only refers to Oysterhouse as "That nut from Oregon." Campbell has slammed
dozens of people by name, but "Ousterhout" is unique enough that if someone
searches for it, they come right up with the Zoomland page. So Campbell never
uses John's name.

Similarly, someone wondering about what Zoom has against Sun-N-Fun might search
the net and discover a bunch of material Zoom would rather they don't see. If
he can get a reader to search for "Campbell" and "Lakeland," instead, the
results are innocuous.
