Wide open was my take too. Way to broad, so I sure it will |
| 16 |
get challenged as soon as somebody tries to enforce it. The |
| 17 |
real danger is if somebody like Microsoft buys the patent, |
| 18 |
then there is trouble against small companies who innovate. |

I find this most disturbing. America is owned by lawyers and |
| 32 |
crooks, in the disguise of corporation. Europe was the last |
| 33 |
bastion of anti-imperialism........? |

No wonder most startups build their products in S. America |
| 37 |
or Asia and just import them to the US....... and |
| 38 |
politicians are looking for jobs? |

Fix the stupid patent system.... |
