Some amazing 16th century flintlock rifles that shoot multiple times before reloading!

I may try it. Got to do something. Read the white paper on steem power tonight, making a little more sense.

I will print it so I can highlight it, then I will own the information.

good maybe you can explain it to me because I get lost when I try to read those things.

Me too, you have to read, and re-read it, until it makes sense.

A trick I learned from reading patents, is to highlight everything related to a topic in a specific color, say steem power, in yellow; and steem dollars in blue. Then you can read only the portion of the document related to steem power, by reading all the yellow (and green); or steem dollars in blue (and green).

The re-read becomes laser focused, and the fog of double speak is disbursed by understanding. :)

oh that makes sense! takes an engineer to figure out how to read..

With convoluted documents, it helps, LOL! :)

I used to be paid to break competitors patents, and to file a new patents to compete with them. None of my patents came from this, mine were all new Ideas! A Lot of patents are not very well written, so with careful study and highlighters, the gaps appear.

oh I understand. very interesting. and very competitive what you were doing with those patents. no I know your ideas were yours, no one would think like you do! lol

When you start a patent, you look for patents that are close to what you want to do. They are listed on the new patent as prior art. It is VERY hard to find something where there is No prior art found on a patent search. They call them virgin patents and they are a once in a lifetime find; and since a patent HAS to have prior art, it is a problem to write. I had three, and it drove the guy we hired to do the patent search crazy, LOL! It lets you make WIDE claims too. :)

so you had once in a lifetime finds, that ain't bad, sounds kinda amazing if they're once in a lifetime. hey I have an idea for a patent but I need someone to make it for me.

That is always a problem, who to trust! Here in Okalhoma there is a group called Oklahoma Inventors Congress, and they are helpful. Texas might have something similar? We can't talk here, too public! ka5jet @ yahoo.com separated to avoid the spider bots! :(

The funny part of the virgin patents, was the patent search guy got two in one month, and He thought he was loosing his touch, ROFLOL! I always do my own search, so I knew before I gave it to him! :)
