| Abstract | Professor Smith's proposal for a Fame Register remains no less viable today under the TDRA than when it was made with reference to the FDTA. I am far less confident than Professor Smith in the ability of his proposed Fame Register to produce the advantages he asserts. I now explore some of the reasons why Congress continues to prefer the courts to the PTO as the arbiters of fame. |
