When I opened it and read its contents, I just couldn&#8217;t believe my eyes. At first I thought it was a joke. This letter, a Cease and Desist letter, was from Julie S. Maresca, attorney at law representing UFO Magazine. The letter demanded that I stop using the term UFO\u009d on my UFO hobby website. It stated that UFO Magazine was the owner of the term,UFO, as they had a federal trademark for it.<\/p>\n<p>Wellso do 172 others if you search the trademark website at USPTO.gov. There are a bunch of people who have the term UFO\u009d within their trademark name, or just the term UFO by itself. And just think of the millions around the world who use the term UFO\u009d in daily conversation, in newspaper articles, in magazine articles, on websites, in letters, on message boards, etc. Do you think UFO Magazine has sent Cease and Desist\u009d letters to everyone using the term UFO?
