Isn't the "for dummies" thing a trademark of Wiley Publishing, Inc?

I would get a grace delete for this, it will bring you nothing but trouble

"for Dummies" is a live mark ...

Wiley has a history of aggressively policing their marks.

Worth $0. Famous enough "brand" that it would be next to impossible to use in a way that wasn't infringing.

Has to be infringement.

Negative value only in the long run.

thanks for the appraisal.

Sounds like a decent domain but it's a misleading feeling. It most likely has TM issues.
