First off, I am by far not the person to answer this question. That patent is bunk in my book. There is NO invention as far as I see. All I see is process not IP. I would expect that patent to get dropped once reviewed because it is a "next logical step" process.
Crap like that makes me sick and really shows what the patent system has become. With all that said, if your process is different, then there is absolutely no conflict. Charles P.
