Footnote seen in net.unix-wizards:
	The "unix" in "net.unix-wizards" is a down-cased variant of "UNIX"
	(please note: all UPPER CASE), which is a Bell Labs trademark.

Question:
	Is case significant in trademarks?  If so, did Bell Labs do the obvious
	thing of trademarking* Unix (and unix (and ...?)) as well?

*Actually, UNIX is a trade/service mark these days, isn't it?
