that would be different, but you aren't.

FWIW, Model Railroader(tm) had a "Model of the Month" for many years, may
still do for all I know (I'm no longer a subscriber).

Not sure what that implies, just thought I'd throw it out as a perhaps
useful bit of info.

Larry may not be sure what it implies but I think I know what it implies to
me...

To me it implies that anyone trying to trademark a name as generic as "Model of
the Month" is being silly at best.  What if Fashion Magazine decided to start a
"Model of the Month"?  Would we get upset?  How about RC magazine (Radio
Controled)?  I think I am with Paul, I might just start a "Model of the Month"
of my own and have it not even remotely LEGO related.

This is precisely one of the reasons why I pay so little attention to LUGNET
anymore...
