Well, I pushed your button, didn't I? Hey, I'm just playing pedant and couldn't give a squirrel's hind end for Bic or their silly named product. I guess they could trademark Wite Out and not White Out. Or maybe they thought it was cute.
I didn't know they were a French company but I see they've come out with an exciting new product: pocket ash trays. Only problem I see is that it looks too small for my butt.
