		<content type="html"><![CDATA[Not only is that sign a flagrant example of apostrophe abuse, the punctuation isn't even a real apostrophe--it's a foot mark. And yet ... how touching that the designer actually picked out an appropriate typeface (Caslon Antique, or something close).]]></content>

		<content type="html"><![CDATA[I agree about HR 683 completely.&nbsp; And again, I am impressed with JetBlue's creative team and their choice.&nbsp; My caution is just to the extent that a wily competitor nicks a variation of the term "jet" for its own campaign and JetBlue tries to enforce whatever rights it may have.&nbsp; Believe me, I am a firm proponent of advising clients to select non-protectable marks if the descriptive or generic term is what they want, because it saves time and money&nbsp;-- with the caveat, however, that the moneysaving also comes on the enforcement end.]]></content>

		<content type="html"><![CDATA[JetBlue's creative team understands that: 1. you don't have to own it exclusively to be successful and profitable, 2. Owning it wouldn't make it any easier for their clients to swallow.<BR> <BR>It is about time that we realize that HR683 is an abomination of a free market and absurd in a global marketplace. The only beneficiary of the goldrush of marks is the USPTO and the legal system that tries to deny the truth of genericide, and created the fiction of dilution,(one of the few valid arguments is the prevention of source deception.)]]></content>

		<content type="html"><![CDATA[I'm not saying that JetBlue is going to try to enforce it - just that <STRONG>if</STRONG> they do, it'd be difficult.&nbsp; And that this choice of slogan is emblematic to me of the struggles that often ensue between marketing and legal.&nbsp; Don't get me wrong - I think the slogan is quite cute.]]></content>
