Space marine trademark attempt fails

The BBC reports that the "space marine" book pulled last week or so by Amazon is back on sale.

The nice folks who had claimed trademark rights for the term "space marine" should try to trademark the term "not bright". You never know when that comes in handy.

On a more serious note, the K-Landnews ditched its principle "no research" for a few minutes after reading that Amazon had pulled the book.

We went to Amazon and searched their site for "space marine".

We found hundreds of results dating back to the days before Amazon was only known as a huge river in South America.

Has anybody trademarked the word "dumbass" yet, or is it free? We would like to use it in the future, so please advise if you know anything.

Ah, well.
