I have felt that way from the beginning of this thing. It is ludicrous that such a thing can happen especially since it takesd soooo long to get your original patent.

Spend 3 to 5 years jumping through hoops for them then get out into the market only to find everyone eles is already making your widget, you file suit and all the "THIEVES" have to do is file for re-exam of a your existing patent and effectivly gum up the works.........Oh how well our system works!!

TTC, I hope you are merciless with these thieves, please pursue criminal charges on our behalf!!
