Thanks to the persistence of forums poster bird., and the memory of forums poster Manifisto, we have rediscovered the legal document with a BYOB thread in it!

The document
appears to be denying a trademark application for "FIRST INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY"

The thread
is included in its entirety, complete with adbot messages, in the document. The thread apparently backs up the assertion that "scientology" is a generic term, a sentiment which we here at BYOB firmly endorse, for some reason.

The pizza shop scientology page
which the thread was about.

Mr. Jim promises he will mail a free pamphlet to anyone who provides their address in the form he's provided. Amazingly, this page is still up. I will personally give a big sloppy kiss to anyone who requests this pamphlet and posts a photo of it when they get it. On the lips.

But in any case, it appears it has been 5 years since BYOB (re-)demonstrated that Scientology is a generic term, and it is high time we renew this steadfast obligation to the people of the universe.
