I think it is part of a plan to destroy western society by locking up all the courts and government with unanswerable questions such as "Who first thought of the rectangle?".
Soon, there will be nothing left but a wasteland and some lawyers arguing over who gets to own half a dead cat while they warm their hands on oil drums full of burning currency.
- caf 14y agoOr maybe it's a cunning plan to save western society by locking up all the courts and government?
- ktizo 14y agoCould be either. Or even both. Is very hard to tell with cunning plans.
- viraptor 14y agoGood idea. Although the highest European courts are already pretty busy sorting out other burning issues. Like VAT exemptions for golf-club non-members (http://www.out-law.com/en/articles/2012/august/ecj-to-rule-on-whether-green-fees-charged-to-non-members-of-golf-clubs-should-be-exempt-from-vat/ http://www.out-law.com/en/articles/2012/august/ecj-to-rule-o...)

- narrator 14y agoThis whole patent thing is turning Hobbes' hypothetical "War of All Against All" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellum_omnium_contra_omnes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bellum_omnium_contra_omnes) into reality.
- ceol 14y agoMore likely, this is a cunning plan by tech giants who are tired of wasting money on patent nonsense to get everyone to realize how messed up it is! *I can dream, can't I?
