Me too. I was off sick with the flu and it was fun for a while, but now
I have to go back to work. Now I'm just sick of hearing the same old
fantasies trotted out again and again.
For everyone's information I write patents for a living. I am an EE/CS
graduate and know personally over a dozen CS grads. who are employed by the
US patent office. Software (or any other) patents are NOT granted
without a lot of investigation and careful scrutiny. I know that, it is
MY JOB TO KNOW!
Have fun with your delusions.
