The other day I had one of those Big Ideas (for a mass-produced solar cooker gadget) and my thoughts automatically started to go down the Patent path. I had to correct myself by remembering that any innovation I introduce is for the whole world (to glorify the Father) and not for my own benefit.
But on further reflection, I remember that Patenting as a defensive move is wise. One can secure a patent for the express purpose of keeping a technology Free, lest a more selfish person patent it in the vacuum. Wise as a serpent and harmless as a dove, that. -- Tom Haws 480-201-5476 "There are many causes that I am prepared to die for but no causes that I am prepared to kill for" Gandhi _______________________________________________ Ldsoss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.ldsoss.org/mailman/listinfo/ldsoss
