When it comes to patents, ignorance is bliss, because of the treble
damages for willful violations.  All programmers should be on notice
by now that anything they do may violate some patent somewhere.
No need to stir up deep, muddy waters.

I am not a lawyer; this is not legal advice.  This is not the unauthorized
practice of law, either.
