Bad News

I did a Google search, "stone steel steam" to see what I might be dealing with in terms of being findable if the name starts floating around detatched from the manual and people try to find the source. This blog is hit #2, which is nice.

The bad news is the #1 spot, a BBC documentary series called Fred Dibnah's World of Steam, Steel and Stone about the Industrial Revolution in Britain. [I guess] It's not hugely well known - there's no Wikipedia page on it, but Dibnah was something of a cult celebrity in Britain (he died in 2004, the documentary is dated 2006). This could lead to copyright/trademark problems, though the day the BBC stoops to notice my work is the day that I declare "I win at RPG publishing!" Still, worth looking into, and considering changing it before going to press with the full version rather than after.

  • I totally should have Google checked this title back in October.
  • I totally want to see this documentary now.
