Original Message: Furthermore, if a name can be traced back to the orignator, beyond the shadow of a doubt...

Some years back we held a benefit auction. A certain Sue Doe contributed an auction bead...basically a little Venetian for the African trade, decorated to look sort of like a monkey face. Sue named this bead "Head Monkey". The bead did wildly well for the cause; a generous forumite helped drive the price to a bit over 100.00, well above it's value of perhaps 10.00. Anyway, this bead was delivered to it's buyer with a written COA. So now. Here we have real provenance and proven origin of the name of a specific bead! Copyright issues? Hmmmm!
Didn't JP originate the name "Zen" ?
