We don't need to get everyone to agree. We need to get one judge and jury to
understand the facts of technology and issue a ruling accordingly. Then we need
to convince the Supreme Court are uphold the ruling. If we can convince the
Federal Circuit as well it is even better but this one is a long shot.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

Bad patenting and bad copyright extensions are only two of the ways in which the
legal system is discrediting itself -- look up "foreclosure fraud" for
a much, much bigger way.
If the legal system loses legitimacy, then it's going to be very interesting.
At that point, we might as well push for a Constitutional prohibition on
patents.
POIR describes the only possible path for the legal system to *regain
legitimacy* in the area of patenting; every software patent is a disaster, none
of them are good for anything, and so only a "big bang" elimination
will restore legitimacy to the system.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
