I can't believe somebody modded this ignorant shit up. Too bad I did my meta-moderating for the day already. Ok Jerk-Off, you go sue the Patent Office - I think I rather sue the asshole who creates the unenforcable patent application in the first place. Maybe you should volunteer your time at the patent office so you can research prior art for them.

uhhh... does the corporation have the right to free speech or do PEOPLE within the corporation retain that right? Just because you work for a corporation does not mean you give up your right to free speech. Nice try, next....
