Well, you can't use "Thing". Call it the "Armless Hand", or "Disembodied

Thanks to all for the info on this issue, it's been some interesting
reading.. I'll definitely be keeping a close eye on the issue,
and I've had some excellent support from a great group of people who
don't know me from Adam  :)

The fact of the matter is, I'm not going to get rich off of my
creations.. they do take up a great deal of time, but you know what..
I enjoy
doing it.  It's another hobby of mine, and in these hard times it's
nice to use one passion to help fund another.

That being said, I'm sure a lot of you are tired of hearing about it,
and I haven't heard from Wayne since (here's hoping he's realized
it's not worth the trouble), and frankly I think I've been more than
civil in my correspondence to him.

I've actually already moved on to my next project, which is a Thing
shooter rod, modeled after my own hand this time so there's no
question of copyright.  ;)

Again, thanks for all the support.. you're a great bunch.  :)  The few
rods I've sold have been shipped, so I hope those of you RGP'ers that
have bought one so far enjoy them!

Good point.

By the way, I spoke too soon.
