Carnac The Magnificent
As
prescient as he is scrupulous, Grand Patent Poobah
Jon Dudas predicted
patent reform passage: "I'm optimistic that we'll have patent reform because what we
see is that there are very real answers. We're an innovation economy. We think
that the model works, but can be improved [to arrive at] a positive bill that
can benefit everyone."
The White House has damned changes in damages, and disagrees with other issues in the proposed legislation. There is widespread opposition to the bill from a variety of sources, including manufacturers, drug companies, and unions. But, besides happy-go-lucky Dudas, the prospect that patent reform will be enacted this year has snowballs in hell cheering that they too may have a chance.
