Or Linton Qweshi Johnston (I think, dub poet, can't remember all of it) Whenna first came to London town Me have to work on da underground 'Af to work long hours all day For very likle pay ... England 'a b.tch There's no escaping it.

Opponents of cold fusion have worked closely with the patent system, and they have melded it to their objectives. They did this by various methods including harassing and firing patent office employees. They reject patents for absurd reasons that would never be applied normally. As you suggest, the patent system is politicized. Unfortunately our political enemies got there first, and they have taken over the institution. As things stand, I do not see how we can fight them. I think it is a mistake to attack the enemy in his stronghold. - Jed
