... it's hard to uphold the argument when someone moves away from the
deliberate confusion to clear examples.
You state:
what
Myriad has claimed is a particular chemical in isolation
But that
describes our biological forms:
Chemicals being the life blood
The fact
you consider one of the gene's in DNA to be a chemical doesn't alter the reality
that it is part of nature.
It may very well be part of the greater whole
and may - or may not - occur naturally in nature in segregation. That doesn't
alter the reality that it is still natural.
The cell once-upon-a-time
wasn't known. It was theorized and the creation of the microscope helped prove
the theory. The microscope was patentable subject matter.
Not the
Cell!
And just because someone is greedy enough to want to argue that the
complex cell can not exist in nature alone - does't alter the reality it
shouldn't be patentable subject matter to begin with!
All my humble
opinion of course. We'll just have to wait to see where the Supremes weigh in
to see which of us is more closely aligned.
