This just in, Steve Jobs on the way in to MacWorld announced that his company will be suing New York City over the use of the name "The Big Apple". In additon, separate lawsuits will be filed against all grocers and other retailers selling Apples with his authorization, and against Gweneth Paltrow for naming her daughter Apple.

This has to be the most ridiculous action ever by the Olympic Committee, that's saying a lot. If anyone is going to challenge the use of the name, it should be the State of Washington against the USOC, Afterall, the olympic Mountain range was there many centuries before the USOC even came into existence.
