[Patents] How Bessen's paper is being distorted

[Bernard Lang Bernard.Lang@inria.fr]

we have a saying for that in French

  " demain on rase gratis "

translates as :  " tomorrow we shave for free "

The story goes that it was a door sign in a barber shop

Of course, the next day the sign was still there ...

Maybe Greg is related to the same family ...

No hard feelings

Bernard
