I did not see the original post, but it reminded me of a story about a
Welsh sausage maker that was forbidden to use the term "Welsh Dragon
Sausages" in their product packaging (for those unfamiliar, the Red
Dragon - or Y Ddraig Goch - it's iconic for Wales). It seems there's
no *real* dragon meat in "Welsh Dragon Sausages," which advertising
might mislead the public. <snort!>
