I should have added that just like the english language as used in many novels,
one can not patent the phrase "to be or not to be".
Unfortunately in the realm of software, being a mathematical language, this is
exactly what proponents of software patents want to see, patents for things like
linked lists.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

For me, a world where software patents make sense can only exist if
congress intended the area where development is encouraged to be firmly in the
area of the legal profession and the courts.
I'd love to see
someone submit a patent application for an innovative approach to a legal
process. For example, try patenting the submission of an amicus brief as a
Lessig-style video presentation "written" on a notepad computer. If nobody's
done it before, it must be patentable.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
