MazelTov,
"Syndros is the first and only FDA approved dronabinol solution for oral use. It is a liquid that is easy-to-swallow..."
Thanks, MazelTov, but this makes absolutely no sense to me.
I hardly have any reasonable qualification to argue with the hunted and defamed warrior, Dr. John Kapoor, whose incredible beheading my wife and I witnessed in Chicago long before John's biotech had even the slightest interest in the The Weed or opioids under another alias as best I can recall.
After a long delay before the start of the annual meeting, my wife and I were seated at a very long conference table at the right hand of the head usurper with the erstwhile founder/COB/CEO/principal shareholder sat at the other end reduced to a lowly director without portfolio.
The good doctor battled back and regained control of the biotech before the year was out but the wars continued without let up through decades...
But back to Syndros -
It's use as a pure THC preparation like the branded Marinol in pill form that had been long approved by the FDA without scheduling can avoid the damage and time required by going through the digestive system when it is administered as a mist.
Syndros scheduling as a dangerous, addictive drug [Schedule II] is a result of politics and hysteria rather than good medicine and is even a relief from the very real threat of being labeled a drug without any medical use [Schedule I].
Ah well. Life is a pain and then you die but there are compensations and the eventual triumph of Insys is likely one of those.
All JMO.

Lonetree,
My copy from another posting was an atrocious blunder.
This is what was intended:
Always nice to see insiders buying!
Yeah, Lonetree, but that has been going on since time imemmorial while the stock has had a sad sack decade or so until lately.
Not arguing with you at all. Just think the bad times are truly over and a rise today is another clinching argument.
The loose nuts in the steering mechanism in D.C. don't augur well for the future of the country IMO but I think Frost has us on the sunny side of the street even with all the dark shadows.

Best, Terry
P.S. I am getting a bit overexcited because I see blood in the streets - a time of both great danger and opportunity typically. Use your own judgment. Mine is obviously - dubious.

Ed Jankowski to replace Andrew Perlman as CEO
According to Linked-In profile, it sounds like a splendid change but there's cause for concern.
My Linked-In profile is - somebody entirely different.
I tried for a few minutes to change it but heck it sounded like a great promotion.
So this unabashed impersonator of some poor fellow who has not earned the disrepute thinks Jankowski did a great job at Godiva Chocolates - he was the American CEO selling all right chocolates as if they were Van Duyn's or some others that were exceptional. Godiva is head of the premium class - or something - and Ed gets to be the top dog of our - umm, ahhh - future hope.
Or maybe somebody else did all the good work and Ed can bring them along. Should be no trouble at all getting most anyone in Chicago to relocate.
Just kidding [kind of].
I do like the word and thanks, JJ.

Jeunke,
Conclusion: LWLG is well ahead of all global photonics competition with its active Polymers. It would seem that the scientists in Enschede are not aware or care. They seem happy with more cooperatiom and meetings in exotic places.
LOL!
I have to depend on such information from informed observers but splendid writing such as this sure doesn't hurt.
Thank you.

GaAs VSCEL is supposed to splatter against the purple brick wall from about 12/2017-6/2022 and LWLG was supposed to pick up the lowest hanging fruit. Anyone know what happened with that?
A software fix [horrors!?!] is said to have delayed doomsday for 2 or 3 years but this is the real hilarity:
Finally, a Problem That Only Quantum Computers Will Ever Be Able to Solve
https://www.quantamagazine.org/finally-a-problem-that-only-quantum-computers-will-ever-be-able-to-solve-20180621/
It's possible a photonics computer - that unlike the quantum computers actually works - will solve many deep problems described in the article but it is unimaginable that any computer will soon solve the long, long combinations with a quiet move smack in the middle of the drunkard lunatic chess champion Alekhine, or maybe tougher, the murky games of Tal who even seemed fully sane.
A prestigious invitational chess tournament was being held in Berlin before WWII. The German border guards asked Alekhine for his passport.
Alekhine picked up his cat and said, "This is my cat. I call her Chess but she can't play chess. I can play chess and I am the World Champion. I don't need a passport."
The tournament had to be delayed a week so the World Champion could be sprung from a loony bin.
The people that believe there really are quantum computers might should also worry some about their sanity. I think they are kin to Alekhine's cat.

BioTime Licenses GMP Cell Line to Goliver Therapeutics
ALAMEDA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BioTime, Inc. (NYSE American: BTX), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on degenerative diseases, has licensed one of its pluripotent cell lines to Goliver Therapeutics, a France-based company focused on addressing liver diseases with regenerative technologies.
...This commercial license allows Goliver to build upon its pre-clinical work with our line to produce their cells for commercial use.
The terms of the agreement were undisclosed, but include an upfront payment, potential development milestone payments and royalties on sales of commercialized products.
https://investorshub.advfn.com/secure/post_new.aspx?board_id=6754
The only reasons I can think of for omitting details are:
1. Agreement remains tentative despite commitments.
2. Regulatory approval(s) are needed.
3. Adjustments to AgeX spin-off are needed.

Proto,
LWLG may actually have a future in medical devices!
In fact photonics is already of great importance in medicine.
Photonics & Lasers in Medicine was published from 2012 till 2016. It was the joint official journal of the German Society for Laser Medicine e.V. (DGLM) and the Swiss Laser Surgery Association (SALC). Photonics & Lasers in Medicine was devoted to publishing original research contributions from all fields of technical and scientific research and clinical applications of lasers and photonics in medicine. Each issue provided a report on a specific current topic and an overview of the latest related research and developments. Additionally, Photonics & Lasers in Medicine had a magazine section with short communications, discussions on key topics, reports on meetings and seminars, and the latest news from international laser research centers, companies and related societies.
https://www.degruyter.com/view/j/plm
It's very odd how backwards America often is in applying technology in medicine and elsewhere. I remember when a single hospital in Shanghai was reported by a laser journal to have more surgical lasers than were available in all the hospitals in America. I have reported on the beating heart surgery by a remote Da Vinci robot surgeon being developed by an American company becoming routine in a hospital in Italy long before clinical trials of any kind began in America. The wound could covered by a band-aid and one patient was reported to have surgery in the morning and mowed his lawn in the afternoon.
In America, the heart had to be stopped after the rib cage was broken open...
[Single bypass is uncommon but still...]
Meantime there was talk about remote surgery like on the moon or Mars. Think photonic hookups might be of some advantage?
Apologize for boring you.
I bet Lebby wouldn't be bored but then you would know a lot more about him. I never got a chance to meet him and probably never will because of a medical problem.
Best, Terry
Very sorry, Jeunke. My posting was misplaced by a stupid blunder but maybe I will be allowed to make it very much on topic for this board.
A drug has been going through apparently successful testing for decades for cancer [naturally], heart disease, Alzheimers and more.
One of those more is arthritis and it recently saved our Border Collie's life after it got FDA approval.
But it won't be saving any human lives or health anytime soon because no clinical trials in humans have even been scheduled despite preliminary testing over the years and the drug is far too powerful to be allowed on drugstore or supermarket shelves where even the like of federally forbidden dirty pot drugs are allowed by state permission.
Synthetic THC however has been FDA-approved for decades in strength - 100% - vastly beyond any biologic Cannabis.
Medical uses are rapidly expanding worldwide now that prejudices are barely beginning to yield to science.
Photonics delay is more incomprehensible but it is hardly out of the question that the delay has much the same sources without the same legal barriers.
Best, Terry
According to Wikipedia, antagonists to EP4 are in development to treat Alzheimer's, heart disease, osteoporosis and more but there wouldn't appear to be much hurry.
Maybe they are too forgetful already.
Seem like kind of biggies to me along with the most common arthritis.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prostaglandin_EP4_receptor
Best, Terry
We are on the same wave length.
A rather odd monopoly created supermarkets to what they are today while staying private and thus without the relatively easy funding of public corporations.
The company had a monopoly on shopping carts alone and was said to be very profitable. I believe they always had the capability of manufacturing the shopping carts themselves and didn't need to license it out.
The new shopping carts introduced a few years ago showed the original patents had expired.
I am mystified why some patents were never developed fully and expired with loss of interest despite seeming great value.
Even Wikipedia has a puff piece on antagonists to the EP4 receptor [drugs that bottle up the bad genies] that might possibly make all manner of terrible diseases a distant memory and put some specialists out of business.
Hey, could that be the reason...?
Naaw, perish the thought. No one could that mean.
Best, Terry
will we do it organically or will we be bought ?
Elementary, Jeunke. Any damn fool can answer that, so I will.
We can do it or we won't be we.
The genius behind the building of the greatest financial engine on the planet ever in America was the innovation allowed by start-ups that The Constitution once protected with its patent law that is largely ignored by courts today.
When monopolies take over, innovation ends. Monopolies don't grow, they just get fatter - like the blob. Startups like LWLG can be snuffed out with incorporation into an Intel or re-creation of an even fiercer Armonk Monster - IBM - that sets up enormous difficulties in further development before decay.
IBM was notable for destroying all comers in hardware and software until Ken Olsen was given $40K when he only had an idea for a mini-computer. Ken's Digital Equipment mini-computers are obsolete monstrosities today but incredible growth happened that was first set in motion by IBM trashing GE's pitiful efforts to dominate the new computing business IBM was building.
What is the way to the greater profit for investors?
- Surely you jest.
A man with a formula for a chicken and egg cycle took over a ne'er-do-well flour miller and chicken purveyor. I made a huge mistake when I sold stock in the company as a minnow swallowed a sick whale.
Hard to believe now but the whale was Banquet Frozen Foods that was disgorged by a dying conglomerate, RCA as best I can recall. Banquet was in such bad shape that the conglomerate took an IOU for a rummage sale price that was still a hefty burden for then tiny ConAgra.
I don't think Lebby is a sellout like I was but you never know. [Given the same circumstances, I would probably sellout today but I am weak.]
Best, Terry
something could always launch from academia, which is always on the move at their own sluggish pace.
SLUGS???
About as sluggish as the hydrogen bombs dropped on North Carolina:
The 1961 Goldsboro B-52 crash was an accident that occurred near Goldsboro, North Carolina, on January 24, 1961. A B-52 Stratofortress carrying two 3–4-megaton Mark 39 nuclear bombs broke up in mid-air, dropping its nuclear payload in the process.[2] The pilot in command ordered the crew to eject at 9,000 feet (2,700 m). Five men successfully ejected or bailed out of the aircraft and landed safely. Another ejected but did not survive the landing, and two died in the crash.[3] Information newly declassified in 2013 showed that one of the bombs came very close to detonating.[4]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1961_Goldsboro_B-52_crash
In one of our modern Athens of learning second only to Arkansas, cancer vaccine experimentation at Oklahoma University has cast a long shadow that may be worse than the near loss of North Carolina:
2000: “The Body Hunters” Exposed; 75 Experiments Halted at Oklahoma University
http://ahrp.org/2000-2/
Uncontrolled academia threatened to take out LWLG [IMNSVHO] before The Admiral booted himself upstairs so he could fill Space with his ego.
Slugs at their slimy worst are cuddly critters compared to uncontrolled experimentation and it isn't easy. I had such a mission once with tools as limited as once pulling unarmed guard duty under a mosquito bar. [The imaginatively named mosquito netting seemed best at keeping the malaria carrying dive bombers inside with me.]
Best, Terry
JohnnyLightwave,
I'm a Navy veteran
My son is too and I never held it against him. He was fortunate in being a nuke on the Admiral's boat - er, ship - and so was far away from the heat of battle during the first glorious Iraq victory. I was grateful for that and that he wasn't to blame for losing a war like us dirtbags in Vietnam. Pat's grandfather is the only one of us who was drafted. It was mandatory that all the young boys who were capable of navigating on land without aid in a small hamlet in County Cork be a member of the IRA so that when the Black and Tan grabbed one at random for water torture there was no need to guess if they were members.
I would prefer not to talk about admirals and generals and other ignoramuses because if I had read War and Peace first I never would have been a hostage as it were. Best to learn the easy way.
Nevertheless I regret to tell you you gave me a great thrill in providing substance, however thin, in providing substance to my belief LWLG can grow far beyond the fringes to the point where even the devices can be incorporated into the Lightwave polymers as discussed in a wonderful paper Schiets provided.
Thank you again.
Best, Terry
Thanks, Ombowstring.
If you think about it, light has been used for very long time for conveying information. Geodolites used for doing continental surveys need careful measurements of temperature and humidity. I have no idea how they control for temperature differentials over large distances but then I was once offered a job taking gravity readings which is more complicated.
Could any kind of cable be omitted altogether?
I think it might some day just as Japan seemed to think transmitting energy down to earth from an armada of solar satellites was child's play once.
For now I think, like Steve, LWLG is King of the Hill and will likely stay that way for a very long time if they are not sellouts.
JMO.
Best, Terry
At this point, I don't know if Lightwave is far ahead of everyone else or if competitors are working on basically the same technology.
Quite seriously, Ombowstring, automation of photons was taken quite seriously over 50 years ago in a lab where I worked. One fellow made himself a billionaire betting on optical cable that was a disaster area. Brad [that really was his first name but for the life of me I can't remember his last name] simply bought all the stocks since he had no technical knowledge.
Photonics is really on the cutting edge and no one else seems capable of controlling light like LWLG is now.
It truly is hard to be certain about competitive threats with the high security walls and huge possibilities of faster, cool computing but you know all that.
Good luck to you and let us know what you find if you would,
Best, Terry
Prostaglandin E2 Exerts Catabolic Effects in Osteoarthritis Cartilage: Evidence for Signaling via the EP4 Receptor
https://tinyurl.com/ycsu9yfk
Yeah, I know real fun reading but PETX's drug for dog's osteoarthritis has been around for a very long time and even Wikipedia has a puff piece on it.
Elevated levels of PGE(2) have been reported in synovial fluid and cartilage from patients with osteoarthritis (OA). However, the functions of PGE(2) in cartilage metabolism have not previously been studied in detail. To do so, we cultured cartilage explants, obtained from patients undergoing knee replacement surgery for advanced OA...
Quantitative PCR screening of nondiseased and end-stage human knee OA articular cartilage specimens revealed that the PGE(2) receptor EP4 was up-regulated in OA cartilage. Moreover, blocking the EP4 receptor (EP4 antagonist, AH23848) mimicked celecoxib by inhibiting MMP-13, ADAMST-5 expression, and proteoglycan degradation. These results suggest that PGE(2) inhibits proteoglycan synthesis and stimulates matrix degradation in OA chondrocytes via the EP4 receptor. Targeting EP4, rather than cyclooxygenase 2, could represent a future strategy for OA disease modification.
So why did only PETX get around to making daily doses of an EP4 antagonist that convert tired old bones and destroyed cartilage healthy again [kind of - our Border Collie still has obvious evidence of arthritis but she is not inhibited or pained at all despite the enormous energy of the breed]?
The only answer I have found is that the receptor is very complex and then those knee and hip replacements make a lot of money for surgeons.
I suspect the osteosarcoma drug will make more of a splash whenever the Ag delinquents get around to approving it but EP4 receptor antagonist may be the greater moneymaker.
Just dreaming. My wife is really crippled with osteo and very resistant to a knee replacement.
Best, Terry
ombowstring,
Question: Why Lightwave and not Ciena?
Because Ciena is a band of slick salesmen near the D.C. corruption seeing who is best at the political racket while the CEO of LWLG is busy converting Silicon Valley into a plastic monsters lair when he isn't partying in Frisco. Lebby will soon make all electronic computers look like covered wagons at a NASCAR rally while the drudges that do all the heavy lifting are stuck way out of sight atop the dreary, dry, dungy mountains of Colorado that even buffalo can't stand anymore. Let working folk sweat and labor and classy folk enjoy the good life.
A bit more soporific, LWLG has a huge breakthrough that will replace slowpoke electronic computers with pieces of light that are the fastest thing in the universe.
No need to thank me. I tell everybody how things are.
BTW is there any reason anyone should get stuck with shares of Cieno?
Best, Terry
I’m still pretty sure that they’ve never completely dropped the ball on the optical computer that Terry Turpin was brought in for back when
Bless you, Johnny Lightwave, but could you help a sinful doubter regain the faith?
As you know, I suppose, each one of Turpin's photon computers was made by hand with excruciating difficulty and yet it was pure lunacy to drop development of such an incredible tool that has far greater potential than the colorfully named quantum computers.
I imagine there remain efforts behind very high walls here and over there [primarily China] to build a photonic computer without the invaluable ingredient LWLG has.
As always, just my opinion.
Best, Terry
As long as last Friday acquisitions PR has nothing to do with "strategy bait and switch".
Nothing I know of suggests any kind of fraud which "bait and switch" always is.
LWLG is on the cutting edge and all has to be shown.
I have no idea what is so upsetting about the frontiers of science.
Once I asked a CEO of a biotech with highly regarded heat shock proteins to be used as cancer vaccine adjuvants in an annual meeting what he expected to do with some rootbeer flavoring that he had bought at a rummage sale.
The heat shock proteins get their name from being ejected from heat-damaged cells with the express purpose of disposing of the damaged cell. They also seemed to have use as a way of alerting the immune system to the damaged cells that are growing cancers.
I really didn't mean to rattle him but I obviously had.
The man, who was himself a Ph.D., stumbled around a bit and blurted that the rootbeer flavoring might be useful as a supplement to the heat shock proteins.
In the actual event, the heat shock proteins were one of the common train wrecks in biotech despite all the early promise while the rootbeer flavoring - more sciency-sounding as saponins - not only saved Agenus from likely liquidation but broke into the headlines co-powering the breakthrough malaria vaccine.
The cutting edge is a dangerous place. I don't commonly fault anyone being nervous in such a place but it's hard to imagine anything much safer than LWLG's breakthrough polymers unless it's an incredible ostearthritis drug that took our middle-aged Border Collie off her deathbed and turned her into an overly energetic pup in a couple weeks.
People have the same EP4 receptor as dogs that allows the miracle but isn't necessarily the same.
The idea is the drug is already doing its work on the intended targets and people would be a huge bonus.
Best, Terry
Not going to pretend i understand this...
Looks awesome to me, Steve, and I feel indebted to you for linking to what may be fantasy or the - ahem - wave of the future for LWLG.
From the link:

I can't say I have anything remotely like a clear understanding of all that is presented here or even that it is not a pipe dream but this much of the abstract should point to something a heap better than continuing to stroll down memory lane hand-in-hand with The Great Pumpkin.
Might also say something about why Lebby got a huge bundle of obsolete technology and aging patents for a song.
Best, Terry
But the basic technology is ok and LWLG is improving the material part...
Uh huh.
My wife owned a house built circa 1840 with a stone and mortar garage built right into the sidewalk wall. Probably would have been swell for a Hupmobile and maybe could be used by a new econo-car today but more likely to attract drunks or rats.
I expect LWLG knew what it was buying better than the experts hereabouts.

P.S. The house had a dirt basement swell for plucking a duck and maybe gutting and skinning a bear but I had a concrete floor put in to make it a bit more modern despite the sacrilege.

Bears falling out of trees should concern rather than delight bulls.
Has The Pumpkin ever been known to profit from a stock buy?
Why do you think he will now?
I think he probably will but blow it all with a quick trade like 98% of traders.
Best, Terry
Let the camp counselor worry about things such as what janatorial company to hire
I would trust a working stiff like Marcelli over a whole herd of analysts and generals.
I got a chance once to sneak down to talk to workers I knew to ask them what they thought about a new piece of automated equipment we had built during a break in proceedings of an evaluation.
The workers loved it but were hardly loathe to describe some terrible flaws. In the end we were fired by the management who had fallen for better pitches but I would bet decades later our equipment is still in use while other wonders have died along the trail.
I was a terrible janitor, Pumpkin, but I was hired when I was a freshman in high school while you weren't. I never heard of anyone hiring a pumpkin to do anything.
Best, Terry
Thanks, Ben.
Lots of good stuff in there but INSY has never been and will hopefully never be a marijuana stock.
Marijuana is a junk or slang term that is abhorred by science. As far as I know INSY was never prohibited from banking like the outfits now selling unapproved marijuana drugs generally far from pharmaceutical grade.
Parents with a child with scary spasms that may even be life threatening [as we once were in a long ago time] do not have a pleasant task in deciding whether to give their infant a "dirty marijuana" concoction mostly made from hemp or trust in the wisdom of the past two Attorneys General under both Obama and Trump who are and were hell on wheels in regard to all Cannabis products.
The sooner INSY and other pharmaceutical companies relieve that problem, the better off we will all be.
Best, Terry
F2,
it will only make sense when devices are sent to customers.
You're not even waiting for sales?
With bears falling out of trees, you think a strong bull run will go ballistic and you are going fishing?
Does nobody believe in technologists [as opposed to technology] anymore?
Alan Abelson used to preach about dreams being far pricier than reality, that the times of greatest danger were when dream stocks had their first sales and [far worse] when they had their first profit.
The former editor of Barron's when it was worth reading had loads of graphs and evidence - as well as anecdotes - backing his claims.
But, as usual, it's the exceptions that make the rule. Abelson's favorite whipping boy was - Amazon.
You just can't trust nobody no more.
Never could.

C3po,
Thomas Edison/Quotes that Dr. Michael S. Lebby is following:
"I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.
Edison never said he had successfully found 10,000, 1,000, 100 or 10 ways that didn't work.
It is a myth.
I tried to find the entire room where Edison met Henry Ford that I was told had been moved to the Ford Museum. It certainly wasn't available anywhere on the grounds of the Ford Mansion either but it had a unique feature wherever it is or was. Edison had nailed the chair to the floor.
Tesla's vengeful description of Edison as a smelly, unkempt recluse was probably at least true in essence but Edison was probably a true autistic despite the Aspies [Asperger's syndrome] claiming Edison as one of their own. His language skills were very delayed even in later adulthood but his genius is evident today despite the many calumnies.
Lebby is no Edison. It appears the entire universe of those who find fault with Dr. Lebby post on this message board.
Those who invented and improved Perkinamine and its family will probably remain in the shadows forever but I think Lebby will never slight them but rather prove their genius.

Cursory review of patents assigned to Lumera, some of these may well have caused real/perceived conflicts, so yes, sweet to know this is a non-issue going forward for Uber-company LWLG!
How dare LWLG claim it is unique and patent protected?
Largely forgotten today is that Englishman Swan won a half-interest in Edison's nascent improved lightbulb company because of Swan's own prior improvements but what prior improvements did Lumera make in our polymers?
I think, Proto, even you might be seeing what is not there.

Kapoor goes to trial in 2019.
Wanna bet?
You can't even tell us about his purported crime.
For sure "witches" are even being burned today but they are not billionaires anywhere in the world except in the like of Russia.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modern_witch-hunts
Either way, Kapoor is totally removed from INSY and current management is not charged with any crime except by liars.
Best, Terry
Can you read and think, Koog?
If you would spend a fraction of a second realizing that even trial and conviction and execution is not proof of crime we could have discussion.
But you never listen. You just rant.
I would be an idiot to deny John Kapoor was arrested or just as mendacious as you for claiming over and over Kapoor is guilty of some broad spectrum undefined crime.
You can't even specify what it is you are charging. Insys' main sales are of a powerful pain relief to dying patients that comes in the form of a mist delivered directly to the bloodstream through the mouth.
Subsys is not a street drug. It is fully legal, pharmaceutical-grade medicine that is not what the street dealers or addicts are looking for.
Sure people can become addicted to pain relievers and so we should cut off legs without even the whiskey......?
Yeah, you are convincing us all.
Best, Terry
Wise,
LWLG will only start climbing substantially when there is concrete evidence that it is progressing with its 50GBS commercialization.
Obviously supremely logical and therefore nearly as worthless as my opinion.
The anthropomorphic market is pure fiction. All auction markets provide an indispensable resource for disposing of all manner of nearly unsalable items alongside all manner of manipulation.
Absolutely awesome was continuing operation of the Baghdad Stock Market even with the beginning of the historic Shock and Awe bombing campaign until the lights went out. It never reopened even under the purported beginning tutelage of our fanciful capitalistic system that never was.
How might one protect oneself best against fraud, waste and abuse in any auction market?
- IMHO by learning all you can about what you are buying.
Is that foolproof?
- Hell no. Nothing is.
But what about price?
- Even a cretin should know it's whatever you can buy or sell for at the moment.
Best, Terry
Sokol,
keep in mind that patents are legal monopolies.
That's the way The Constitution reads but it was written by farmers and informally all but abolished by lawyers, monopolists, demagogues, plutocrats and other malevolents to suit their actual owners without a single formal amendment.
Even The Admiral recognized that problem and talked about using trade secrets but that depends on the will of my older generations that no longer cares much about honor, law, common decency and other such non-essentials to strong government.
Google has replaced MSFT as the primary example of a monopolist enforcing its own patents, however dubious, while ignoring the patents of others.
You have undertaken to cheat me. I won't sue you, for the law is too slow. I'll ruin you. - Cornelius Vanderbilt
Nothing new here, I suppose, but the last shreds of a true democracy most advanced by the now despised Indian Killer [a truthful charge but hardly unique even today] Andrew Jackson has been symbolized by the removal of the villain's portrait from the

Fortunately patent law for commoners is yet honored in EU and some smaller domains so maybe Lebby had a point in some dubious circumstances.
Besides, when LWLG grows big and powerful, if allowed to, it might become a monopoly to rival the old DeBeers diamond monopoly that is now in a late stage of decay.
All JMO.
