If
this Reform Bill is signed by Obama, The fear is that the auto
manufactures will push thought patents on inventions which just happen
to be mine.
Finally,
someone who is actually telling the truth and wrote about the pitfalls
of the bill.
How the new bid to
reform patent law will kill jobs @ Finance.Fortune.CNN.com
I'd
like to make one thing clear. After spending a good part of the day
(Sept.7th) reading about the problems companies are having with the
patent laws: first to invent has nothing to do with the problem. The
problem is that the patent office has been turning out patents that are
too vague. These laws firms have mastered the are of getting patents
granted
with claims
so
broad, it has only invited litigation to sort out the mess at a later
time.
And now the companies that hired them in the first
place are complaining about how much the court battles cost. It's like
the law firms knew they would make more money battling it out in court
later and now they have convinced the companies it because of the
patent laws - when it really isn't at all.
Pretty stupid isn't it. We snuff out the
private inventor because the patent lawyers were greedy from the
get go and now the human race has to pay for it by being stupid.
The patent holders (the companies,) just threw
money at the law makers thinking it might help them if the laws were
changed, but it's the patent lawyers and the patent examiners at the
patent office who are to blame. Dumber by the day.
Oh-
here's the deal:
This bill has a provision that is bailout for a an influential law
firm. To let them off the hook for a possible $214 million malpractice
payment.
Critics
have labeled the provision "The Dog Ate My
Homework Act," say it is really a special fix for one drug
manufacturer, the Medicines Company, and its powerful law firm,
WilmerHale. The company and its law firm, with hundreds of millions of
dollars in drug sales at stake, lobbied Congress heavily for several
years to get the patent laws changed. Get this: even though Medicine
Company was suing the Law firm, they gave the law firm $18 million to
hand over $17 million to lobbyist who intern handed it to the lawmakers.
I could be a little off, but....

Get
this: I read that Bill Gates thinks that
private inventors should not have to pay fees to get a patent, but then
I find this bit on how Microsoft has been pushing for first to file
instead of first to invent. Gee what good is it if you can't get it
past the first patent
lawyer you talk to?

And
I found this at Reuters.com but you have to realize that they are
asking a patent lawyer about the change and they are not about to tell
you about the pitfalls. One is that it would take away the right to
have a jury. Like I can trust a judge about as far as I can spit. And I
happen to know an inventor who invented some things that have to do
with computer
screens. He said they don't even ask for a license, they just take it,
so he had to sue several companies at the same time, but this bill
takes that ability away, which means it will cost even more for a
private inventor to enforce the patents they do have.

What
pisses me off is how these guys twist it so it doesn't
sound like such a bad deal. Let's just hope Obama isn't so gullible.
And Yes, if Obama signs the
bill, I can kiss my kids good -bye. It's like I will never get anywhere
near enough money to do anything with them. And I myself will never
amount to anything.
To even file for them; patent lawyers would take all my money and
steal my inventions at the same time.
Bottom Line:
All these big companies have handed over millions of dollars
to lobbyist to get the law makers to do this. When everything revolves
around the money involved, they don't even consider what they are doing
to the human race. What the needed to do was to make the patent terms
start ticking away once the patent was granted instead of as soon as
you file. Going with first to file will only make things worse.
From
earlier today Sept. 7th.
It appears that
we've got a young teenager Malia on board around here. I heard about
her a week or two ago, but now the name Malia is pretty much everywhere.
They probably have her computer rigged, but
what can they do about all of her friends cell phones. It's probably a
family affair now, if you know what I mean.
Update: let's just hope and pray she can
keep her dad from signing such a lousy bill.
No doubt it influenced me to make my web-sites more
cell phone friendly.
