I’m sure @doctorow is bang on but it is a little discouraging.

Is it a pigeon or a dove? The answer is: Yes. Pigeons and doves belong to the scientific family Columbidae. Within that family, English-speaking folks basically name some species "dove" and some "pigeon" at random. Pigeons = doves. There's no real taxonomic difference.

Trademarks and lawyers who bully. Cory Doctorow rides again.

Two of the most astute IP scholars I know also happen to be two of the best legal writers I know, and also happen to work at one of the worst IP abusers in the country: Jennifer Jenkins and @publicdomain, of @DukeU, the nation's leading academic trademark abuser.
