[PLUG] And now for something completely different - An ON-TOPIC government-related post

[Matthew Rosewarne <mrosewarne@inoutbox.com>]

For anyone interested in the (extremely important) software patent debacle, I 
came across this article.  The title is entirely wrong, since it's largely 
devoted to tearing the "defense" arguments a new one (or several).  It's 
fairly one-sided, and I'm not sure I would agree with _all_ of the author's 
points, but it is a fairly comprehensive summary of the various pro-/anti- 
patent arguments.

%!PS: I'd take a house party over a political party any day (or preferably 
night)
