Has the League for Programming Freedom contacted any of the news media about the PTO RFC? The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's interest has given the issue a new timeliness which might elevate the story's newsworth in the eyes of CNN Special Assignment or ABC News Nightline, for example. If Joe Q. Public is convinced that current computer software patent law is a threat to the entrepreneurial spirit of the U.S.A., the status quo will change faster than any recommendations by the PTO could elicit. -- =============================================================================== David Edelsohn Dept of Physics Syracuse Center for Computational Science 201 Physics Bldg INTERNET: edelsohn@sccs.Syr.EDU Syracuse, NY 13244-1130 "... Vice-President Quayle's face pops up and then there's that moment of fear." -- Cokie Roberts (ABC:This Week, 5 May 1991)
