... Sawzall is a brand of reciproccating saw .

Just to be pedantic, it's a trademark for the saw; the brand is actually
Milwaukee.

Just to be pedantic, Milwaukee is the source.

[The first definition of “brand” is the name given to a product or service
from a specific source. Used in this sense, “brand” is similar to the
current meaning of the word “trademark.”]

Stolen without permission from:

http://www.dictionary.com/browse/brand-name

"brand name. noun. 1. a word, name, symbol, etc., especially one legally registered as a trademark, used by a manufacturer or merchant to identify its products distinctively from others of the same type and usually prominently displayed on its goods, in advertising, etc.'

Where does it specifically say "Sawzall" was stolen by Milwaukee Tools? Musta missed something?

"Stolen without permission" is my standard way of letting everyone know
that the quoted text that follows was copied and pasted (i.e. stolen) from
the link I provide without the permission of the author or owner of the
website.

If they want to come get me, my defense will be that at least I gave them
full credit for the text I stole.


Wow, paranoid are we?


stupid - he always admits his guilt, so he is unable to plead ignorance.

"Doctrine of Fair Usage" applies

from wiki:
Fair use is a US legal doctrine that permits limited use of
copyrighted material without acquiring permission from the rights
holders. It is similar to the fair dealing doctrines used in some
countries outside the United States.

AND FROM THE SAME SOURCE:
While the permissible purposes for fair dealing identified in sections
29, 29.1 or 29.2 of the Canadian Copyright Act are exhaustive, fair
use may be for any purpose including but not limited to “criticism,
comment, news reporting, teaching..., scholarship, or research”.
