"This trademark filing provides the opportunity for many lessons to be learned.

The lessons:

1. You can keep an eye open (snoop) on your competition.
2. You should do a search to clear your trademark.
3. You should file before you announce your plans.
4. You should file in countries where you intend to use the trademark.
5. You should take advantage of your first filing date when filing in other countries."
