Straight Dope Trademark

Is the registered trademark for The Straight Dope actually “The Straight Dop”? I notice the circle R shows up after the P instead of the E in Dope.

This has probably been asked before, but I couldn’t find it anywhere…

That’s just a logo. From the bottom of this page:

Since this is a question about the Board, I’ve moved it to ATMB.

Of course it’s “The Straight Dope.” It’s just a clever way of dealing with the symbol.

Or not so clever. Depends on your view, I suppose.
