Eolas' Convenient Move To Texas

,----[ Quote ]
| While most were big name websites (Google, 
| Yahoo, eBay, etc) there were a few that were 
| odd, including retailer J.C. Penney and IT 
| services provider Perot Systems (in the 
| process of being bought by Dell). Well, the 
| ever resourceful Joe Mullin points out that, 
| of course, these firms just so happen to be 
| located in Texas, which helps Eolas come up 
| with a reason why its lawsuit should be in 
| Texas.

Has the US patent system gone too far?

,----[ Quote ]
| When Samuel Hopkins came up with a method for improving the production of
| potash, it was probably just the kind of invention that President George
| Washington had in mind when he created the US patent system. Hopkins, who in
| 1790 received the first American patent ever issued, had discovered a way to
| increase the production of a critical resource used to make glass, soap, and
| soil fertilizer.
