Yes got to agree with that. What I am averring is 2 things (1) Serving up advertisements on a domain name website is a legitimate and lawful business (2) The domain owner serving up those advertisements DOES accrue IP and common law rights in the trademark classification covered by said useage ,whatever that may be.

Thats all I am saying. What the applicant for the TM is saying is that I am not entitled to any protection and have no IP rights accruing from said use.
