"I have been asked to comment as to how long after the life of the MMP patents does the right to file suit continue to exist as to past infringement. Please recall that I am not a patent attorney, but, if recollection serves, the answer is six years.

My apologies if this is not correct, as I did [not] have time to research the point. I am sure others will do so, and I will gladly stand corrected if the answer is something different."

Hope this helps. I hope Ron appreciates my "[not]" amendment, as I'm sure it was his intent. Thank you Ron for the timely input (somewhat confirming the info I believe Milestone previously presented).
