"Milli Vanilli is neither a Milli or a Vanilli. Discuss."
"Palmolive – it's neither palm, nor olive. Discuss."
"Grape-Nuts – it contains neither grapes, nor nuts. Discuss."
"The Civil War was neither civil nor a war. Discuss."
"The radical reconstruction of the South after the Civil War was neither radical nor a reconstruction. Discuss."
"The Holy Roman Empire was neither holy nor Roman nor an empire. Discuss." (This quote is based on a famous comment by Voltaire.)
