    <p>Yes, we look in TSDR and we see that the Trademark Office clerks
      have indexed this application two ways.  First, the description of
      the mark:</p>
    <blockquote>
      <p>Description of Mark:    The mark consists of the stylized
        wording "DIMIQI".</p>
    </blockquote>
    <p>Okay, so it is stylized.  That's settled.  But wait!  We also see
      these words in the TSDR record:</p>
    <blockquote>
      <p>Standard Character Claim:    Yes. The mark consists of standard
        characters without claim to any particular font style, size, or
        color.<br>
        Mark Drawing Type:    4 - STANDARD CHARACTER MARK</p>
    </blockquote>
    <p>Seems to me they can't have it both ways.  Well, somebody was
      wrong at the Trademark Office.  Look at this and decide for
      yourself who was wrong:</p>
    <p><img src="cid:part1.hD0enqJn.T3F0lHwe@oppedahl.com" alt=""></p>
    <p>Oh and note that "review prior to publication" is completed!  The
      nameless Trademark Office people who do this review seem to act on
      a hair trigger.  But not in this case.  They snoozed through it.</p>
