Barry,

"Royalties are being paid to the holder of this patent for something that seems to me to be both obvious and intuitive."

Here is another on :
Until recently, I lived in Germany for many years, and June is well known as the month of fresh home grown asparagus.
This year, it was noticably more expensive. The reason being that some jerk has applied for a patent on the process of gradually piling earth around the growing stem , thus keeping the asparagas tender and white.
Now, I guess asparagas has only been grown in this way for 500 years or so, but nobody patented it
