Why do you keep bringing up whether or not they deserve it? That isnt the issue I was talking about. I was only talking about jurisdictions where patents like theirs may not be enforcable. That still has nothing to do with deserving it or not, and you wont be able to convince me that laws of one nation have anything to do with deserving something. They are seperate issues. -- Trixter http://www.0xdecafbad.com Bret McDanel UK +44 870 340 4605 Germany +49 801 777 555 3402 US +1 360 207 0479 or +1 516 687 5200 FreeWorldDialup: 635378
