From a comment on Greenspun's site:
"First, to those who didn’t realize it. This is a patent application. It has not yet been granted. I believe your page contains a similar enough idea, such that it should be considered prior art. ... Finally, inventors have an absolute duty to disclose any prior art. If they don’t, the patent could be invalidated. Patent attorneys call this “inequitable conduct.” So, you could just look up one of the inventors and e-mail him/her a link to your page. They would be obligated to disclose this to the USPTO."
