All this stuff is starting to get into the internet "urban legend" realm. <br /> <br />People being arrested for taking pictures (if you read the story posted above closely you'll see that the FBI that was involved, it wasn't the UP by itself). <br /> <br />The UP spending $3 million to get $300,000 ($3M would be the equivalent of 60 workers spending all year doing nothing but administering several hundred minor contracts. I don't think so. It probably involves the one time cost of registering all the logos FOREVER to get $300,00 a year FOREVER). <br /> <br />All the logos are fallen flags (you guys ought to actually look at some trains, there are thousands of cars, buildings, signs, etc out ther with those "fallen flag" logos, reporting marks, etc on them in active service, those logos are STILL IN USE, so you are saying that the UP doesn't have the right to register a logo they are currently using?) <br /> <br />There are lots of ways this program isn't a good one, but all of the above reasons are malarkey. <br /> <br />Smith.
