What a totally evil concept, patenting a method to commit grand theft - it is no different than a bank robber patenting his method for robbing a bank.
I read the patent. It is the most vague thing you can imagine. It basically says that it covers carbon trading instruments. No detail, no “teaching”. This could only stand as a complete inside job.
Bump. Patents are interesting.
Algore and his cronies can’t be far behind Raines.
Thanks for info.
A shining example of why patenting processes should not be possible.
And the Patent will be seized to pay off the debts of Fanny and Freddy. Of course, the patent is worthless unless Cap & Trade goes forward. And there is the ultimate selling point to encourage America’s sheep to go along with Cap-n-tax.

A quasi government entity. Why don’t we own the patent. My University owns my patents.
