Obtaining a patent on a gene (not the process used to find the gene) is akin to getting a patent on finding a new animal species, finding buried city or dinosaur.
It might have to do with MS not releasing how OOXML does some things like âoeAuto Space like Word 95â.
MS also has 2 versions of OOXML: -OOXML original flavour (what current version of MsOffice writes) -OOXML ISO-flavour (version of OOXML that MS was able to buy an ISO standard for.)
First we had Captured Regulators Now we effectively have Captured Governments with US and UK being current examples. Oh, BTW, "Captured Governments" is a more PC way of calling them a Plutocracy
A U.S. Embassy cable written in April 2009 describes a meeting between Zoe Addington, director of policy for then industry minister Clement, and U.S. officials.
In contrast to the messages from other Canadian officials, she said that if Canada is elevated to the Special 301 Priority Watch List (PWL), it would not hamper and might even help the (government of Canada's) ability to enact copyright legislation,
the cable says.
Days later, Canada was elevated on the piracy watch list.
In the article, it says SCO is broke: "total assets as $0 (yes, that's "zero"), down from $1,326,293 on petition date, and total liabilities of $1,119,238, up from $418,965 on petition date."
So who the F@#K would represent them for free? Is money coming from "the cloud"?

acronym for "Captured Regulator of Telephone and Cable"
Purpose: To provide the illusion of a regulatory body for communications in Canada by ignoring offences of the companies they regulate while ignoring the needs and the will of the people they were meant to protect.
Status: Currently staffed by past and future Bell, Rogers and Telus executives. Actively lobbying for draconian laws written by US content bodies (RIAA, MPAA).
Watch the video first. (at least first 10 seconds of it)
1. With LFTR you have next to no waste. From what I remember, there are 2 radioactive leftovers and both are valuable. -molybdenum-99 (Medical usage) -Plutonium-238 (Space probes)(VERY valuable)
2. Uranium has an [Expensive] established fuel chain. You can only get fuel pellets from ONE supplier: the one who built the reactor. And no, they don't have sales.
3. Advantage of thorium vs uranium: -No enrichment -No 10000 year radio-active waste -No high-pressure water cooling schemes that need power to work and backups up the wazoo. -Others mentioned in the video

Legally, if those obligations are listed in the contract that nobody reads then they have no such obligations.
You haven't you seen South Park's Centipad episode?
I agree with you there.
It they make it smaller than a dime it's begging to get lost.

I thought you could not patent facts?
Look it up.
Fascist = when a Government and Corporations become "Friends With Benefits"
In such a situation, the people can only watch with disgust.
Just replace the goo with Money and Power and you get the picture.

And Neither should have gotten a patent.
It's almost as if UPSTO examiners have "lobbyists", too?
The Corporations control/buys the government which controls you.

I don't know which version LO supports.
Add Canadians to the list.
We are currently going through our "Bush" phase.

Being that Anon is a *loose* organization, I hope this is just a whiny branch of Anon and not something that most of Anon approves of.
Defacing for defacing sake is childish.
Losses on both sides should be expected.
One of my friend was Gung-ho bullish on MS last year. I could get him to see past the BS.
Then info on Win 8 started to come out.
His sold his MS stock late last year.
Now he see MS the way I do.
In 5 years I think Windows is about to go the way of OS/2:
Stable but who the fuck cares, it sucks.
Only Canada?
Every country is by default according to the "Cables"
Just get the Banks out of Congress and the Whitehouse and lots of this BS goes away.

We all know that when SOPA 2.0 will come out and it will be good for the greedy that paid for it.
Why can't we get a "bill of rights [on the computer]"?
Does it have to do with the report that says 20% of Americans should be seeing a shrink?
Looks like someone has watched SGU episode 1.
Since they are bought and sold, call them what they truly are: Political Property.
You must be new to this planet.
Short of a quasi or full revolution, it will happen if we refuse to use MPAA/RIAA content. They are the new mob.
RE: Events like this are really great, it really spurs innovation.
No, that's what patents were invented for. /Maniacal laughter

I blame magnetic pole reversal.
As we near closer to the the tipping point, the Magnetosphere reduces in strength.
This let's more sun come through...
"RE: [SOPA] will have the effect of making the GPL stronger and more defendable."
Under SOPA, Github and SourceForge will be gone within a month. You cannot defend GPL if you can't get to your source code!
