Could you please refrain from adding the idiotic (and unneeded) tm marks on an email? Thank you. |

You don't see 'em in "normal" magazines, newspapers and emails sent by, for example, me, do you? They are prevalent in press releases (and magazines which slavishly copy such releases), ads, and anything else vetted by paranoid lawyers. I object to them for the same reason as the ubiquitous "it's" for "its"...if you like well-formed writing (to borrow a phrase,) tm, reg and other symbols have no place there.
