Look at all the strawberries! It’s hard to tell from the pick, but that is about 2 quarts. There are tons still on the vines too. Are they called vines?

Anyway- cool!

Has Autism Speaks copywrited the term “Autism Speaks”?

Saturday, June 21st, 2008

An autistic person on aspieweb.com created a t-shirt that says: “Autism Speaks” can go away - I have autism I can speak for myself.

Autism Speaks contacted Zazzle.com (the online store aspieweb was using to sell the shirts) and had them pull the shirts for copyright infringement.

So, have they actually copyrighted the term “Autism Speaks”? Or are they just bullying the autistic folk who are sending out a negative message about the charity?
