It means remaining silent when you are not under arrest or being detained.

The US Supreme Court has said that you must invoke your right to remain silent. It doesn't seem constitutional, but it is currently the law. (Salinas v. Texas and People v. Tom)

Agreed. Also, how about the various taxes you encounter as an adult (income, property, ect...)

One of their early employees did an "Ask Me Anything" on Reddit about 5 years ago. It is pretty interesting.

Air travel contributes greatly to climate change. When we are talking about High-speed rail in the US, no one is really talking about cross country trips like Chicago to LA. They are talking about regional trips like LA to SF or DC to NYC. Ideas like maglev or even the hyperloop are what I consider to be "looking up"

That's why the push for true high speed rail in the US is so important. Amtrak would need a massive budget increase to make it happen.

"The British Parliament's Digital, Culture, Media, and Sport Committee published hundreds of pages in a report in December; they were seized from Six4Three's founder, Ted Kramer, when he visited the UK."
Can anyone explain how/why the documents were seized?

You can register a trademark for a generic term if it is tied to a very specific category. It is what allows "Apple" to be trademarked when related to computers. The problem here is that "Backcountry" is a term that is too closely tied to what they are actually selling. It would be like allowing a phone company to trademark the term "Cell"
