People on the borders will drive to Salt Lake to buy fuel, and people on the borders will drive to Nephi to buy gas," Fox said. "It's a very big frustration to me because it costs us money." Along with the lost business, Fox has to pay more for oxygenated fuel than regular gas. Retailers said oxygenated fuel runs about 5 cents a gallon more than regular gas. The better approach, Fox said, would be to rea.uire oxygenated fuel along the entire Wasatch Front. That would eliminate the business problems as well as address air pollution, since the prevailing winds carry pollutants down from the north, he said. Ursula K.

Robert Torricelli, one of the most vocal Democratic critics on the Senate Governmental Affairs Committee, said the hearings collapsed on a faulty foundation of "exaggerated charges and false leads." "Senator Thompson never had the support of the Republican leadership in this investigation.

It might seem implausible that something as common as "2000" or "millennium" can be part of a registered trademark. "Official Sponsor of But it's all legal, the government says. "If in fact the mark serves a trademark function and we think is able to distinguish those goods from other goods, then we will register it," said Paul Fahrenkopf, a trademark administrator with the Patent and Trademark Office. It takes $245 to apply for a trademark. As long as the phrase pertains to a specific product and there is no existing trademark for that product or related products, the government usually awards the registration. You don't even have to spell the phrase correctly to apply. Nearly 90 people or companies have applied for "millenium" with only one "n." A registered trademark doesn't guarantee protection. Because the Patent and Trademark Office is not an enforcement agency, each trademark owner is responsible for fending off infringers.
