(1) Method for cyclic contraction and decontraction of a variable-volume gas containment to facilitate a gas exchange by means of one or more gas exchange units located in the containment. The gas exchange takes place between the performing entity and the exterior gas mixture through a bi-directional gas channel connected on one end to the contracting and decontracting variable-volume containment and the exterior on the other. The contraction of the variable-volume containment creates an overpressure in the containment that drives a current of gas through the channel out of the containment. The decontraction creates an underpressure that reverses the direction of the current.
"But there's too much obvious prior art for this!"
Yes there may be, but it won't affect claim (2) of the patent application and the other ones:
(2) Said Method where the CO2 content of the exterior gas mixture is equal to or greater than 0.0385 percent. Note to readers: Current atmospheric CO2 concentration is about 0.038 percent and raising
(3) (2) where air flow caused by the contraction of the variable-volume gas containment incites self- propagating pressure gradients,which are used for linguistic or artistic communication between entities, by means of a device embedded in the bi-directional channel or or by the modulation of the geometry of the exit valve which may also be used as entrance for the intake of liquids and solids which serve as a power source to the entity.
***TODO for the patent lawyer: convert these claims to patent-speak***
(4) Breathing while doing something else.
(5) Breathing while having drunk something in the past 24 hours.
The RIAA tried such an argument vs p2p networks, fortunately the judge strongly disagreed.
You wouldn't either want to blame the goverment for crimes which they could prevent or reduce if they only imposed complete surveillance on everybody, would you ?
I, for one, hope they will not even try blaming it on the universities and am confident they won't try, because it would support the RIAA's stance to require more surveillance and control on neutral technologies like the networks in general(internet, p2p, university ones).
( It should be clear to us that, without very strong safeguards against it, that is what patent lawyers would tend to make out of writing source code for software patent applications, just like what they have made out of the descriptive text for normal patent applications. )
In Germany, yes, math is a sport

At least linguistically.
Just like "Wassersport" (water sports) or "Wintersport" (winter sports) we have the word "Denksport" which encompasses mental/intellectual exercises and literally translates to thought sport or thinking sport.
