Not much, really. We little people have to develop a 'shareware' method of
cooperation: use my invention and if you like it, gimme $10
>> I rest my case Crispin. ;-) So we "poor little guys" must not only buy unregistered, untraceable, AK-47's with scopes for our own patent protection, we must use them to protect our fellow comrades as well, or.....

That pretty much describes me but my wife objects saying that I give away
TOO much assistance and information to ever get rich.
>> My wife feels the same about my "helping out humanity", so maybe I'll just let her buy the AK-47 to defend and hunt dinner for the kids. I can spot the targets and she probably can shoot better than me anyhow. ;-) Just in case anyone gets any funny ideas.
I will continue to help, unfortunately just more carefully, learning everything I can about the system.
My piledriver driven point, is that this system is clearly not doing what it was intended to do except for the persons/Corporations with say a quarter million US dollars or more to defend for years, their supposed "legal rights." Yet it lets anybody WITH those assets, DESTROY financially, any "Little" inventor that might get "out of line" and dare say they actually invented something of value. Therefore, they feel they have a right to pay off their bills incurred while struggling developing it.
I would not be bringing this up, if I did not witness this happening case after case. Sadly, this destroys the incentive to try to patent or even invent. Ignorance of the complex system is most often the pitfall, and perpetrators of this violence count on this ignorance. They, like terrorists, deserve the worst.
I feel we as small, poor, inventors should be protesting loudly because in my mind, "This law encourages the very violence that it was intended to stop" so many years ago. Violence comes in many forms.
I am against all violence, but this is a violent law.
My own opinion is that I will not patent any idea that I am not ready to die DEFENDING as my family's property. The current law forces me to take this approach. Let's PLEASE reconsider this problem on a global basis, or trash the whole system as obsolete. Should we have a TV show called "Patent court"? Just to open the debate?
If we don't do something, I predict that violent laws will encourage more violence.
