I read this. It's insane. Remember when peole used to joke that they owned the bits 0 and 1?
Anyone else hear George Orwell's voice in the background while reading that?

...jeez...hmmm...let me look around my house to see what I can patent....
Well, that does it. I'm gonna patent my own little self defense system and demand royalties everytime some one punches, kicks, chokes or other wise attacks/defends using any part of their body. :erg:

Well it could quite possibly be the most funtional thing they've ever invented, and like their memory hog program it's redundant.
That's totally ridiculous. I'm almost sure that I've seen PDA programs designed to do this -- launch different programs using the same few hardware buttons depending on how they're clicked. I guess all those authors are going to be sued or forced to deleted their programs or something. Maybe I should go download as many of them as possible now in case I want to use them in the future. Sheesh. I'm almost amazed that they'd let someone patent something that's been in use (albeit in a slightly different medium) for a long time already.
