Jim, where else will patents come from except overseas if all the research is done there? As manufacturing and design and engineering move overseas, won't that naturally cause a shift in patent registrations? And hasn't that shift been taking place for many years now, accelerating recently? You didn't used to strike me as a person who had all the answers -- "fuchin dumb as posts" "shallow as hell" and "you dont know what you are talking about" -- ???

they have trouble with percentages and figuring discounts Now Jim, all these seniors in Fl say that too when they get jipped everyday by thier mcdonalds/olive garden order taker. I happen to know for a fact this feigned ignorance is really a cleverly disguised way for the young cretins to STEAL grandma and grandpas retirement. If they get caught adding a 20 dollar charge that shouldn't be on the bill - they fake "ignorance" and say oh I added it up wrong - sorry. What was it Steve Jobs is famous for saying - imdb.com Good artists copy, great artists steal. Bill Gates: Get real, would ya? You and I are both like guys who had this rich neighbor - Xerox - who left the door open all the time. And you go sneakin' in to steal a TV set. Only when you get there, you realize that I got there first. I got the loot, Steve! And you're yellin'? "That's not fair. I wanted to try to steal it first." You're too late. A good engineer may build the next spaceship Jim - but a better thief will make the profit off of selling it!
