Another ridiculous software patent that should die!
I people had patented B-trees, there would be no MySQL or other free database and royalities had to be paid on any database of the world.
Or guess, somebody would have patented Quicksearch ... a thousand times more plausible thing to patent.

- PythonicAlpha 13y agoOh right! You are so right! Unfortunately, I can't correct the comment anymore.
- kintamanimatt 13y agoThey would, just not in the US or anywhere else where such concepts can be patented.
