With all due respect to Clark, that statement ... is absolute horseshit.

Clark's area of the law could be so removed from this that the only skills 
he has that are relevant are an ability to read and understand a little bit 
quicker than the average person.  Moreover, if he has never practiced in a 
courtroom (statistically unlikely) OR in trademark law the reading of a 
judicial opinion on the subject and the interpretation of the judges intent 
is something that *MANY* different folks would be considerably better at 
than he.

And he may (for all we know) be the worst lawyer in creation, have failed 
the bar 27 times, be unlicensed to practice, hopped up on maryjane, and have 
received massive head wounds that left him with a 3-year-old's intellect and 
massive facial scars. (Althought the clarity of his posts cause me to think 
he is pretty sharp.)

If you want legal advice on this, hire an attorney who specializes in court 
cases involving trademark law and pay the $300 an hour for the advice, OR 
better yet, go talk to an experienced federal judge who has tried cases in 
the patent and trademark area and ask him where he would draw the line.
