Have you noticed the rampant appropriation of common words of late in HN references to products? Engine. Leaflet. Bayleaf. On and on I’ve forgotten how many I’ve seen but it’s ridiculous to think that in time, they’ll all be trademarked in the US. In short, I find it an issue with no remedy at present, yet to say it’s all well and good would be a sign of ignorance.
