From: Dave 

A fellow who has an online store selling electronic parts has been
approached by Dupont to stop using the word "Teflon" to describe
one of his products, even though the product in question, PTFE-insulated
wire, is manufactured with Dupont Teflon.  Apparently the reseller is
required to pay a license fee to use the word.

Does this strike anyone else as being kind of odd?
