Huey, you wrote->>” I will grant you that the "market value" of the patents would probably make a big difference on the balance sheet. Even so, at some point we should be able to expect that the "great market value" of these patents will translate in to increased retained earnings and increased shareholders equity net of paid in capital.” Huey, as a advocate for “informing the investor” of the “economic value” of the granting of employee options by including such as an expense on the income statement, why don’t you also take up the cause ( in the name of “informing the investor”) to include the “economic value” of patents on the balance sheet? Your efforts in this endeavor would be most appreciated by LT Qualcomm devotees. Thanks for your anticipated support- Jim
