The registered trademark is spelled ENDO CATCH, but depending on how QA and the AAMT attacks you it could be right or wrong. What's right today is wrong tomorrow and changed back the next day.

I'm already miffed thinking of how stupid QA and the AAMT are and I have not even finished "coffeeing!" LOL.
