Alert! Free legal information! (Kind of free, that is).As everyone who took Economics 101 knows, there is no such thing as a free lunch. I am quite fond of this statement and believe that (in the context of a blog offering information about the law) the historical parallel is complete: after all, King Nebuchadnezzar was frustrated by his attempt to obtain a grain of truth and agreement from a series of economic advisors. The last economic adviser to provide a presentation to the King proclaimed "It is an immutable fact that there is no such thing as a free lunch." So on this page I provide a hodge-podge of generalized information on trademark law for the not-so-selfish purposes of helping readers realize the more interesting oddities of trademark law. But I reiterate: it is not a free lunch and it is information about the law, not legal advice! (give me a call for that stuff).
