From The Daily Report:
UPS objects to Brown’s Web site, and his uses of the phrase “See What Brown Can Do for You,” and his “Brown Engine” that performs a “See What Brown Can Find for You” search function. The 101-year-old UPS has used brown as a signifier since 1916, according to court papers. One of the parcel service’s founders, chose the color brown for company uniforms and delivery vehicles because the color “reflected class, elegance and professionalism,” the company said in its pleadings.Sludge interestingly, tho *very much* legally-harmless, chose brown bcs the hue reflected "...grace, skill and panache...". And Rob was able to pick up bushels on the cheap.
