    NYTimes OP-ED on Correlation Patents

    Micheal Crichton wrote an nice op-ed piece on correlation patents with a tie-in to the series of Metabolite court appearances.

    Not to toot my own horn, but the way he ended the article is similar to a short story I wrote back in high school (so excuse possible grammar mistakes).

      The whole present system of patents has hurt my brain for years.

        My friends and I call that brain punching - as in "The stupid patents make me feel brain punched" or "People who make stupid patents deserve a brain punching."
