Patent lawyers are very useful!

What do you call 100 patent lawyers at the bottom of the ocean?

What do you call 100 patent lawyers buried up to their necks in sand?

No, they certainly do NOT stack better than sandbags. Unless you remove their
heads and limbs first. And even then, sandbags has better density and
malleability and can be efficiently used to stem a flood.

While I admire your resourcefulness in dealing with a catastrophe using the materials at hand I'd go for the sand bags in this case. Even though patent lawyers might be good at stacking (the deck, the odds, the jury or being subject to the former) I fear that, given all the hot air they blow off, they are wont to float away with the rest of the debris. They'd make a lousy flood barrier and just add to the pollution spread by the rising tide.
