    This guy must not be very well read..... If The Passion of the Christ is similar to his paper, I think I know of some prior art to his thesis This whole suit is really sad....

    About a year ago, I came across the following article. It's a thorough empirical analysis of "loser pays" that's understandable by lay people like me. It recommends litigation insurance and a cap on the amount of recoverable fees to deal with potential problems with loser pays.

    Nonsense! He's clearly responsible for all the ideas and writings in American culture in particular & Western culture in general!

    force the parties to the law suit to show adequate assets in the event they lose.



    Yeah, good luck getting this guy to pay $75 billion.

    Historically (1977 - 2010) the number of patents filed in the US, by US entities, is the largest in the world; therefore, just like Windows malware numbers vs. Mac OS, the number of idiots ready to claim infringement is proportionally higher, and therefore so is the number of lawyers!

    Apple has conspired with Sicilian mafia to force people to buy iPads.

    There's nothing like just graduating from law school and filing your first $75 billion lawsuit...

    It just proves how slow the legal system has become. It only took 4 days to get registered through the courts.

    I've been drinking with him as well, and even have a hand-written letter from the past. It's not often that one gets to read the phrase "...murdered in the testicles!" But he seems to have gotten the correct mix of meds over time, and has become San Francisco's new Emperor Norton.

    I say Apple should settle with the guy for $50,000 or so. He obviously could use the money to cover the psychiatric care he obviously needs.
