Drink is the curse of the land. It makes you quarrel with your neighbor.
It makes you shoot at your landlord. And it makes you miss him.

It involved me, George W. Bushusuru, and the Devil and a deck of
cards. To make a long story short, I suspect the Underhanded One rigged
the game, because Jorge was made to make me the new FAA Administrator,
and provide me with some lackeys to make any evil and rotten fantasy of
mine come true, at least as the FAR's were invilved.

So I get in there and start regulating. Of course I am burned in
effigy at Oshkosh and wherever AOPA meets, assassination attempts are
made, etc. but to no avail. I'm your worst nightmare, and I'm here to
stay.

What kind of new regulations do I enact?


1.) ELTs need no longer use special certified battery packs, killing a
major profit center for ELT makers. The ELT must be certified to use a
standard off the shelf battery. But you have to change them at 180 day
intervals.

You mean like the ACK which has been around for ages, takes off the shelf
Duracell batteries with a life of 4+ years?

That's strange as Dove is a copyrighted name and they sell soap.

Dove bar = bar of soap at least if you ask for a Dove bar here in
Central Michigan that's what you get.

There's also a company that makes chocolate under the Dove name. They own the
Dove trademark. That's the company that makes Dove bars, which are chocolate
covered ice cream bars.

Central Michigan that's what you get.

That kind of brand name is protected by trademark, not by copyright.
And trademark is divided up into market segments, and a trademark
registration is valid in only one market segment. I presume soap and
candy (or ice-cream treats) are in different market segments, because
I'm familiar with both the soap *and* the candy and ice-cream treats.

Makes you wonder if it's the same company and they just use different
wrappers. Man, but those bars clean you right out!

Dunno. I never tried to eat the soap. Come to that, I haven't tried to shower
with the ice cream, either. :-)
