I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

The suespammers.org mail server is located in California. So are all my
other mailboxes. Please do not send unsolicited bulk e-mail or unsolicited
commercial e-mail to my suespammers.org address or any of my other addresses.
These are my opinions, not necessarily my employer's. I hate spam.

That site has "funny" words on it, like Cygwin, bash, lynx... ;-)

Just install AlternaTIFF. In my case I have Acrobat, so I can print
to a PDF if I want.

Thanks, much friendlier than using Alterna for each page individually.

I just typed a number in at random (654,345). It sure works nicely,
though the inventor of this particular patent (a Mr. Wiley P.Enis of
Booneville Mississippi) probably got some kidding in his youth.

Could it be remotely possible that the name is not a real one? However,
my Dutch dictionary was REALLY edited by Dr. F P H Prick van Wely.

The good news is that nothing is compulsory.
The bad news is that everything is prohibited.

Actually this is probably a real name, I understand that Wiley Coyote is named
after him!

If my name was Wylie P. Enis, I'd *change* it to Wylie Coyote!

It is alleged that a Mr and Mrs Peacock wanted to christen their son
'Andrew', until the vicar tactfully mentioned the problem.

Someone should write a simple script that operates while you are in
the PTO boolean (advanced serarch) from the point of getting the intro
HTML page prior to advancing to each subesquent page of the patent. I
have to review over a hundred patents a month and I would gladly pay
for a program that would just load each page and convert them into a
single DOC or PDF. I use "Snagit" to pull prior art PN's off each
patent to do further searches on thier findings but a little utility
that locates prior art PN's and sorts them into a secondary follow up
search would be really cool.

I posted one last week in a.b.s.e. Only tested with Linux,
but would work with cygwin under Windows, I believe.
You can pay me if you like :)
