Seems like "patents per capita" would also be affected by the age of the population. Lots of children and teenagers = fewer patents.

Hubby is a patent examiner, I meant to ask him about foreign patents as they are very different from US patents but am presently in the throws (sp?) of tax spending before the end of the year. Only way left to reduce taxes is to pay bills and buy office stuff, so will have to look into the patent issue later.
