They are only murky because patent offices place fewer one fewer restrictions on what can be patented. In the old days you need something a lot more tangible than the mere design of a waveform in order to get a patent, but apparently today, anything goes. I also have to wonder how two members of a task force can patent things that presumably the entire task force designed, assuming I didn't overlook some details in the article. The best route would be to drag the patent office to court and invalidate those patents. -- Anthony _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
