Yep, cats fight brutally all the time. My wife's old cat was a fighter and had the scars to prove it. No doubt he had killed many cats, and then he eventually succumbed to an infection from a nasty neck wound acquired in a fight.

Yep, I should have deleted this comment. This was something that I saw repeated often on the early Silk Road forums and I naively trusted it. Sorry.

Prime example of a government function that could benefit from the open source community. If all this patent data were dumped today, in whatever format it's stored in, I guarantee we'd be seeing a bunch of cool ShowHNs within days
