I agree. However, I had a huge discussion w/Marna about the ergonomics of the

Before pontificating on "stupid" patents, PLEASE study the general field
just a tiny bit! These are defensive patents and the unfortunate patent
systems (mostly led by the U.S.) make these very necessary. The only
stupidity involved (other than the whole patent process) is not
