Hello Jim,

My 17th patent, issued last Tuesday, is now posted on my website
(spread spectrum for WiFi).

Congratulations. Does Freescale now owe you guys royalties for it, so
you can buy an island (with WiFi network, of course) and retire?

Regards, Joerg

Congratulations Jim!

Thanks! That was one of those applications I didn't even know was in
process. John McCorkle, the concept guy (and founder) of Xtreme
Spectrum came up with the idea and hired me to implement it in
silicon.

Well, that's the fate of consultants. The usual contract assigns all IP
to the client. Same here but I am ok with it.

Did he come out of the Harry Diamond Laboratories to found Xtreme?

Hey I'm not stupid, but I'm drunk!

If you promise not to tell everyone else then have a look for GB2386011.

Mr Bloggs knows.

And be sure to get a copy of BB Mountain ...errr BrokeBack Mountain...
when it comes out. This is a serious expose of what life on the
Australian range was all about.

My religion consists of a humble admiration of the unlimitable
superior who reveals Himself in the slight details we are able to
perceive with our frail and feeble minds. That deeply emotional
conviction of the presence of a superior reasoning power, which is
revealed in the incomprehensible universe, forms my idea of God
Albert Einstein (1879 - 1955)

Never mind answering the question, I know everything. You must have been
seriously injured throughout your career; more than a few descriptors
could be applied here, but naive is not one of them.

I am a designer for hire (polite terminology for prostitute). If you
were in the biz you would know that consultants don't own their work
product.

But I've made a substantially pleasant living at it.

Amusingly, over the years, I've designed first virtually everything
that has someone else's name on it.

But I've tended to keep such things as my private art, re-useable at
will. And if there's ever a patent claim I just produce the prior
work... stops 'em dead in their tracks ;-)
