I think the SCO Group should start the patent application to patent the idea of putting weather forecasts online -- I'm sure Daryl's good Mormon upbringing that taught him to sue first and ask questions later, would have given him the idea to put weather forecasts online decades ago. That way Americans can pay three times for their weather forecasts. Just think about that -- every time you send an email message that says it's nice and sunny out there, you would have to pay license fees!
Taken to the extreme -- you wouldn't be able to discuss the weather around the water cooler, as you'd be freely sharing information with people who didn't pay for their weather information! You would be a weather pirate!
(Yes, way too early in the morning -- and it's quite muggy out there.)
Yes -- but that was nice when we were kids. We're now grown up. And today's kids don't want to see their grandfather hopping on alien chicks. That's gross. The Kirk character should be killed. (Again. And again if he comes back.)
Here's the journal article in question.

Conspiracy Theory:
Microsoft is behind this! They're funding some venture capitalist firm that is in turn funding the Evil Niece that's suing Google.
That Evil Niece also happens to be the Love Slave of Steve Ballmer -- or is that the other way around?;-)
Yes, we all know where the word paper comes from -- but when was it first used?
Typical with Euro-centric version of history, if the Europeans (and the Arabians are added in as a sidebar) didn't have it, it didn't exist until they did.
The Chinese invented paper. As usual, the web is a fountain of disinformation, so I don't belive that either.
I believe paper was invented by some dim-witted caveman long before there was civilization -- he kept chewing and chewing on bark, because it held some medicinal value, spitting it out and making... well, paper, when it dried. It was a caveman, btw, and not a cavewoman, because cavewomen were smarter and just didn't get sick.

Darryl McBride is ugly. Is this slander? ;-)
