[dwab3000]

i really want sp to pay, wdp and this man right here are going to show sp...

(screams die sp loudly and is taken away for threating a large corperation)

[pbspectre]

damn...hit a bit of a snag...i tried calling the AGD office number a few minutes ago, and all i got was an automated reponse saying i "couldn't access that long-distance company's network"...


is there any other number?

[Beemer]

Where you calling from?

Try it again 1-847-520-7507 Just stay on the line or follow prompts

[pbspectre]

i'm calling from western Illinois...4-5 hours southwest of Chicago, about as far west in Illinois as you can get...

i'll try calling again, but all it gives me is a 1-800 number to AT&T where they ask me switch LD carriers...

[JT2002]

well if this is as worth it to you as i think it should be, do yourself a favor, run to a 7/11 or any other card shop or something and buy a 10 or 20 dollar long distance calling card, problem solved

I believe "Have Blue" is the guy who has been on top of this the most.
Look for him.....really.

[Buff]

All I can say is keep it quiet untill Smart parts finds out whats up.......

untill the news is out

[gc82000]

Yes finally they are getting someone to speakout against SP.
This is so much fun, I need to take my meds again. Then it will be off to nappy land.

[DeeEight]

yes, i know they have the patent, but to my understanding, patents have to be something new, and orginal, and really never though of before. Common, i would have though of a electronic trigger. I would just not know how to trip the sear. I hear of something like there were electro markers dating back before smart parts, but i dont have proof.

well, yes... except the US patent office is famous for ignoring pre-existing patents that cover the exact same sorta thing, when granting new patents.

I'm going to do some arm-chair lawyering, so take it for what it's worth: In the US, and maybe the UK too, you don't have to file for a patent immediately. As long as you're able to prove that you first came up with the idea, you can still be credited with the innovation. I've known people to have a notary endorse their plans or written descriptions. But, it doesn't keep others from copying the idea.
