Not quite on the subject of family crests &c, but on the subject of
stupid "customized" mailer programs:

Some years back we entered a computer program in a number of chess
tournaments (human tournaments, that is).  We asked the USCF what
would be necessary to do this (circe 1974 - this info is now out of
date), and were told that all we needed to do was to send in our
$10 and give them an address for where to send its (!) magazine (which
is sent to all USCF members).  Some time later, we got a solicitation
from a certain national magazine addressed to "Computer Duchess" which
talked about how they were sure that the "Duchess family" would be
delighted to subscribe, etc. etc.  I think I may still have that
lying around somewhere ....
