If a company is copying your patented design you have to address it
Isn't that kinda what I said?
Well to be blunt, (not rude, just gonna tell it like it is)
I think that there are some people here that see your attempt to get a patent on VV as kinda like the guy that filed for copy rights to 100s of old standard songs that were written before there were even copy right laws.
It could be a lack of understanding as to just what your intentions are with all this.
If you just want to patent something that you are (or going to) manf. that is VV then cool, but if your just trying to be an opportunist and patent VV so you can sue ( or threaten to sue in hopes of a settlement) then I understand why they are upset with you. Judging from the reply to me above, It sure sounds like that is your intent. You said "I have never had to protect them in court because done the right way you never go to court !" .
So I'll ask,,Just what are your intentions?
