    So you don’t foresee any legal issues with pursuing my dream of opening a chain of nail salons called “British Petroleum”?

        That’s a great slogan, really sums up the energy of the PepSi social network. I’ve just filed to trademark it.

        What if down the road I wanted to use that slogan for my landscaping company, NiKE.

        Would that be an issue?

      Depends… Did BP trademark it every which way to Sunday (say for multiple industries/uses)?
