<p class="MsoNormal">Fun, but apart from the misuse of trademark as a verb, I thought that the quiz was a bit misleading. Not sure how anyone would be expected to know that HONEYCRISP was registered as a trademark but then abandoned. And of course since the
author only considers marks to be trademarks if they are registered, the answer to the last question is wrong—CINNANAAN *<b>is</b>* a trademark even if it’s not registered.<o:p></o:p></p>
