I don't understand the importance of "first" or "invented." It is my understanding (though I am NOT a lawyer) that you don't have to be first or invent something to patent it. Though the first person(s) or inventors could probably fight a patent, but that requires expensive attorneys, etc. And, I wish the U.S. did not allow process patents. It's like someone could patent addition/subtraction or something ridiculous.
