• I've found that a lot of patents can be invalidated by "prior art with no new usage" rules. The bad part is that it takes $$$ to do that.

    I agree that this has all become ridiculous and money grubbers have tainted the true purpose of a patent.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
