Very observant, Akira. You should hear good US patent attorneys lambast this document as some kind of joke. This document could be a complete diversionary tactic. It has no value in the USA, and actually could be used as proof of lack of 'good faith.' In the USA - the element of 'good faith' is built into law, unlike parts of Europe and Asia, where it is occasionally seen as an American reversion to its Puritanical roots. Mattia Rizzi, in a past posting, indicates that there is a new and yet unpublished WIPO document, which is due out soon - which will very likely convey the important details that Rossi wants to protect. He will then write-off this USPTO diversion as a business expense. Jones
