Change:

to
this is
possible under the current law as the patent lawyers have successfully argued it
at the levels of the USPTO and Federal Circuit
It seems they have yet to
succeed at the Supremes. And as long as we keep getting heard by the Supremes I
think there is a very real chance of getting "current law as established by
precedent of the Federal Circuit" reversed.
We certainly won't succeed in
convincing the patent lawyers themselves - their careers depend too much on us
not convincing them.
Additionally, attempting to convince those who
insist math is patented who then provide one of the math patents granted by the
USPTO as evidence of that is an entirely hopeless effort.
It's why - when
responding to such posts - I choose more to speak to "those who come later to
read".
Coincidently, by doing that - speaking to those who come later who
might not know - I feel I'm part of education rather than banging my head
against a wall. I've found the stress levels drop off to almost nothing in
response.
