Sure, Tim. Thank you for the advice. However, this was filed in 1979. In addition to that, my interest was in understanding the algorithm of four colors in garbage collection but not in recommending it. In any event, here after, I shall not post links associated with patents.

If somebody has rights to a patent that they would like to discuss with us then they can contact the PMC via the private list. We don't go actively searching for them.
