Comments on: The John Doll Era Begins at USPTO http://www.ipwatchdog.com/2009/01/20/the-john-doll-era-begins-at-uspto/id=1618/ Patents, Software Patents, Patent Applications & Patent Law Thu, 09 Feb 2012 00:13:00 +0000 hourly 1 By: Leslie Peralta http://www.ipwatchdog.com/2009/01/20/the-john-doll-era-begins-at-uspto/id=1618/#comment-345 Leslie Peralta Fri, 30 Jan 2009 02:30:01 +0000 http://www.ipwatchdog.com/?p=1618#comment-345 You could not be more correct. And this is a man who hates all things business methods. He is a dinosaur, caused the Bilski controversy, and if he had his way would "overturn" State Street today. He is entirely unqualified to lead that office. We need a modern thinking individual who observes the patentability of novel physical articles and discoveries, but on balance -- and in this electronic commerce age -- lives and thinks in the 21st century as well. He is also no lawyer, understands nothing about what the Congress intended as to the full spectrum of all things patentable, and should cease immediately attempting to discourage and harm business method patents. His bias in that respect, and toward the scientific invention only, is palpable, and accordingly renders him, again, entirely unfit for the position. You could not be more correct.
