    Isn't this really a matter of you being personally discomfitted by the use of a single word, than that way I mean it?
    No, it's a matter of you not understanding the word, Xoro described your error very well. Rats and cockroaches must be better beeings acording to you because they are much better at surviving then us. Your ideas about evolution are as silly as those of Leninists.

    If describing nature as having 'will' isn't ignorance then what is?

    Evolution can improve something, but it mustn't, I'm not hte one who misunderstands science here.

    The only grounds under US law under which you may be censored are the dissemination of technology which poses a serious hazard to national security (nuclear weapon designs are the canonical example.)

    Is the only thing that advertisers learned from popup blockers how to misuse javascript in even worse ways? And no I didn't read the article because there was a fucking ad floating in front of it!

    China is capitalist from one end of the Great Wall to the other and back again. Only an ignorant or a member of the Party would argue and only the ignorant would believe it.

    If you think that "obviousness" refutes that, please read MPEP 2143 and 2144 to understand why that is incorrect.
    The fact that patent offices lack common sense is well known, we don't need to read any manuals for that.

    You must realize that this was an unusal situation: instead of the usual multi-megabyte, undocumented patches from Apple there where individual (possibly decumented, I don't know, can someone fill in?) patches directly from the developer. Even then half of that needed to be redone so you can imagine how useful the usual patches must be.
