        That's why the US Patent Office is broken. by Tomo 2004-06-23 12:50:50
They don't seem to bother checking for prior art, or even whether a patent has been granted for the same idea before.

Seems they think that any prior art will sue or whatever it is you do to try to make patents invalid.

And all that does it make money for lawyers, and the guy with the deeper pockets will win.
