That’s great! Tell Rob he needs to TM or (C) or whatever that design, put it on a t-shirt that can be purchased online (there are lots of services that do this), sell it to the thousands of members of the nerd brigade around the country, and make some scratch!

Question you might know the answer to: since it is a take-off from ‘Guitar Hero’, would something like this run into its own TM or (C) issues? I’m only asking because I’m curious…
thanks!
