If I remember the anecdote: A patent guarantees you the right to
sue.

Is that why lawyers are all in favor of patents?

Dear Reg:

Patents are one of the things that makes a creative people great. In
the Republic's Constitution patents and copyright are listed. Citizens have
thereby a means to increase their wealth and provide employment while having
available the power of the courts to protect their rights.

Not all lawyers are in favor of patents. A few, before they are
cashiered, are against anything that inconveniences their clients, including
laws.

At the other extreme, a few lawyers serving as judges have expressed
disgust at the patent system, supposedly because it rewards the creative.

Please look for some Midwestern wine. It may assist you in recovering
the common sense seen in your early work.

Warm regards, Mac N8TT
