Have you LOOKED at the patent system as it exists today? It does not even REMOTELY look like what you described.

- tptacek 15y agoI have no idea how to respond to this comment. It doesn't contain any new information, and the question is extremely broad. "Yes", I guess. And, "I don't entirely agree or disagree with you".
- xenophanes 15y agoI think the solution was not replying to it. Sometimes people say silly stuff that isn't particularly relevant. They're making a mistake. You don't have to explain it. If you do, maybe someone like me who is interested in meta topics like conversation itself will appreciate it, and maybe you'll enjoy writing it, but you can't expect it to further the conversation you were having, and can't really expect the silly person to learn much.
