Heimlich Demands Maneuver Royalties
CINCINNATI—Lawyers for Dr. Henry Heimlich, inventor of the Heimlich maneuver, warned Monday that the doctor will sue anyone who performs his patented procedure without paying royalties. "The Heimlich maneuver is a registered trademark of my client," attorney Steve Greene said. "We are prepared to protect Mr. Heimlich's proprietary rights, even if it means filing a legal injunction against any non-royalty-paying choking victims."
Just don't choke.
Or, like what most people are doing nowadays, take the heimlich maneuver, readjust the hand positions *Slightly* and call it whatever maneuver. Since the hand position is different, and the resulting outcome is unknown, and *probably* differ from that of the original they can't sue you.
