The Quaker Oats company did at one time thing that it owned the<br>
exclusive right to the use of the word "Oats", such that<br>
when a competitor produced a new cereal product and <br>
wanted to call it "Cheery Oats", they<br>
got their "guns" and attorneys and money and<br>
saidin an unfriendly way that the cheer would<br>
hit the fan unless they desisted from abusing the word<br>
Oatsin said manner. Apparently the threat seemed credible<br>
and the lawsuit impending, a real and present danger, so<br>
the competitor changed the name to Cheerios in a fit of anguish<br>
and it has worked fairly well for them.<br>
<br>
The inventor of Purina Dog Chow, whose family name Corbin was
identical to the <br>
name of the place where Kentucky Fried Chicken was invented left his
hometown<br>
of Corbin, KY, and after a stint with Quaker Oats, departed there
for St. Louis,<br>
where he eventually applied extrusion molding technologies to the
production<br>
of pet foods.<br>
<br>
In the classic case of Jury Nullification, a young follower of
archtypal Quaker George Fox, one William Penn, Jr.,<br>
who had been imprisoned previously for failing among other things to
take oats of allegiance<br>
to the king and propriety, was freed from the charge of preaching in
the street by a renegade jury<br>
that judged the law to be unjust. But Penn went to prison for
Contempt of Court, an dthe jury, too, without so much as <br>
a bowl of cereal to eat.<br>
