Which also is the ONLY valid consideration whether patents on SW should be
or
not be. The argument that because patents on mechanical devices are granted,
sw
patents should likewise be granted is the classical "sandbox" argument: "If
you have it,
I must have it also". Mr Aharonian as well as other proponents fail to
answer the
one and ONLY question: IS SW PATENTS BENEFICIAL TO SOCIETY ???
