Where do you stand on patents?
As I see it, the law and practice concerning intellectual copyright
took a bad turn somewhere along the line and has turned out to be too
heavily biased in favour of capital and against the innovator. It
needs re-balancing, Also some retrospective royalty system seems
desirable. However, I've never explored the subject sufficiently
enough to be able to argue a coherent case. I just sound off every
now and again as I did in this instance.

Arthur,
Excellent! This exposes intellectual copyright for the nonsense it really is.

Irony alert: Trademarking Occupy Wall Street
<http://bottomline.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/10/25/8479333-irony-alert-trademarking-occupy-wall-street>http://bottomline.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2011/10/25/8479333-irony-alert-trademarking-occupy-wall-street
A Long Island, N.Y., man wants to trademark the Occupy Wall Street
movement's name.
Robert Maresca of West Islip tells <http://bit.ly/uv6f6y>Newsday he
wants to put Occupy Wall Street on T-shirts, handbags and glasses.
He filed to trademark the name on Oct. 18. The filing was first
reported by The Smoking Gun website.
Occupy Wall Street representatives Michael Fix and Beth Bogart say
they're not surprised by attempts to make money off the protest,
even though it's about economic injustice.
But Maresca says he only wants to spread the word, not capitalize on
the movement.
Maresca says he became interested in Occupy Wall Street after union
members began showing up at the protesters' encampment in Zuccotti
Park. He used to work for the Ironworkers Local 361 in Brooklyn.
