Whether we could prevail in Federal Court. IMHO the USPTO would not want to defend the present 336 rejection in that very public forum. Because, if it gets that far, and the rejection is that laughable, then questions start to arise about capabililties of USPTO examiners or what outside influences might be at work. And I believe some of those judges would love the opportunity to smack those guys upside the head a few times. Again, IMHO the rejection is not defendable and hence the USPTO will not let it go that far.

I suspect Unisys and others might be thinking that if a license will eventually be required, their negotiating position may never be better than the present.

I'm wondering if an attempt should be made at alerting one or two sympathetic Senators/Congressmen responsible for overseeing the USPTO. The way I see that working is PTSC shareholers asking them to obtain input from a knowkedgeable/neutral party whether the 336 rejection smells like something is rotten in Denmark. Is there sufficient backing to do something like that? Perhaps we can get RG to provide some guidance on the matter before considering it further. What say others?
