Carl's comments remind me of a brief period in the 2000s when I was acting manager of the trademark search systems (TESS for external customers and X-Search for internal users). Suddenly, I was given access to multiple internal reports that were automatically
generated weekly. (Yes, USPTO management has multiple system audit reports generated regularly, though I'm not aware of the specifics of those reports, as management does not share those reports.) One such report was a mismatch report between TRAM (the status
side of TSDR, not the documents side of TSDR) and X-search. That report was generated on Tuesdays. Can you guess what I saw? Take a minute to think about it.</div>

If you guessed that one of the categories of mismatches was registrations on TRAM that did not appear on X-Search, you guessed correctly. Literally, just after midnight on Monday nights, an automated task loads the new registrations for that Tuesday to TRAM,
but since the X-Search update for Tuesday began hours earlier, those thousands of new registrations did not get loaded to X-Search until the Wednesday morning update, so every registration number issued that Tuesday was flagged as missing from X-Search in
that weekly report, making that section of the report essentially useless. Fairly promptly, I requested that report to be generated on Wednesday morning instead of Tuesday morning. As you likely guessed, that promptly reduced the count of registration mismatches
between TRAM and X-Search, typically to at most single digits, allowing me to research those mismatches and work towards having them corrected before the next report.</div>

When the new manager for my section was selected (and took over management of TESS and X-Search), that new manager took exception to my revision of that report and ordered it to be returned to Tuesday morning. Once again, that weekly report returned to generating
thousands of registration number mismatches between TRAM and X-Search every Tuesday. Apparently, management preferred the large number of registration number mismatches (that were mostly just the new registrations issued that week) in that weekly report.
Go figure. </div>

Here's today's update to my QC report (except I don't bother sharing weekend updates with the USPTO). I had to correct a few of the searches since the results didn't match my master list of irregularities. Specifically, searches 3 & 4 were returning some
false hits, namely a few Madrid applications received at the USPTO after July 9th were appearing as problem trademarks. I noticed those errors yesterday afternoon. This morning, multiple corrections were noted for the 7th search, including SN 88629495, except
that wordmark did include an accurate occurrence of the ? (question mark character), so I had to manually exclude that record from today's results. </div>

<div style="direction: ltr;"> </div>
<p style="direction: ltr; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">Thank you Ken for posting. Several things about this situation at the Trademark Office sadden me.</p>
<ul style="direction: ltr;">
<li style="direction: ltr;">A first thing is, this is the sort of thing computers are supposed to be good at. Yes, if some suggested change at the Trademark Office were to call for hiring new staff, I could imagine management doing foot-dragging. But somebody
at the Trademark Office could just set this up as a cron job and it could generate the report periodically in an automatic way. Indeed I bet in a couple of hours I could craft some PHP script that would do this in an automatic recurring way.<br>
</li><li style="direction: ltr;">A second thing is, why does it need external inputs for this to get addressed at the Trademark Office. I would have thought that somebody in management would have caught on years ago that this needs to get paid attention to. Every
one of these cases, when it does finally reach the desk of an EA, will make lots of extra work for that EA (assuming the EA is alert enough to pay attention). And in the (sorry, might happen) category of an EA failing to notice the problem, the result might
well be a grant of a registration with mistakes in it.</li><li style="direction: ltr;">A third thing is, any time an EA examines a newly filed case, the examination necessarily requires a search of Office records. But each of these cases has defects that might lead to its failing to turn up in a search of Office records,
depending on what is being searched for. This, too, can lead to cases getting registered that ought never to have gotten registered.</li></ul>
<p style="direction: ltr; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;">I think probably anybody who looks at this situation would likely be sad for the same three reasons. I realize I am just stating the obvious here.</p>

<div style="direction: ltr;">Sadly, for the occurrences of the superscript ² or ³ characters in the wordmark, many of the trademarks are already registered. I'm guessing that complicates removal of the standard character claim and using the
<b>STYLIZED TEXT</b> mark drawing code for these trademarks? Maybe a <b>Public Note</b> could be added to TSDR for these registrations to admit that the standard characters claim was included in these registrations in error?</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;"><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">For #3, STORE¯CHAIN, the ¯ character is not included in the standard character list, but this trademark is registered, so maybe again a
<b>Public Note</b> could be added to TSDR for these registrations to admit that the standard characters claim was included in these registrations in error?</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;"><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">For #11, CURIO NO¯MERY, the drawing shows <b>Curio N\u014dmery</b>, where
<b>\u014d</b>\u2002is the standard character with decimal value<b> 333</b> and is described as
<b>omacr - latin small letter o with macron</b>. Now that TRAM/TSDR can handle characters with decimal values over 255, I recommend manually correcting the wordmark to
<b>CURIO N\u014cMERY</b> ASAP!</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;"><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">For #12, KASTRA ELI<b>?¯</b>N, the <b>?¯</b> sequence is particularly annoying (the unexpected
<b>?</b> and the <b>¯</b> invalid character for a standard character mark. The drawing shows
<b>K\u0100STRA ELI\u014cN</b> and I recommend manually correcting the wordmark to <b>K\u0100STRA ELI\u014cN</b> as TRAM/TSDR can now handle characters with decimal values over 255.</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;"><br>
</div>
<div style="direction: ltr;">For #15 thru #20 with superscript ² or ³ characters in the wordmark entries, I recommend cancelling the standard character claims and converting the trademarks to
<b>stylized text</b> ASAP to prevent these trademarks from becoming registrations with the standard character claim.</div>
