….IMHO I believe that the pressure being exerted upon the PTO is a good thing. If their supposed limited resources are being taxed by outrageous numbers of re-exams stacked high on each examiners desk, how is anyone to know the importance of the patents being re-examined without an outcry from interested parties.

If we could set aside the re-exams where there were not over 400 alleged infringers put on notice, then eliminate those without litigation pending, further eliminate those patents that haven't already gone through a prior re-exam, the remainder should be a short stack.

….but doing nothing is unacceptable to me.

Gee… can’t you just wait until a government agency starts making healthcare decisions for you…
