Note that all current cites point to either the product or the web site that has probably trademarked the product. Suggest re-writing the article to remove the blatant plugs and refer to the sources listed in the justification above. FYI, the trademark "Model Mugging" pre-dates 1973 when it originally expired as a trademark. It was re-activated and registered at the USPTO in 1988. --
