There are two ways to get a patent in this country--invent something new
or hire a *GOOD* patent attorney--c.f patent #4488662 on which i am
listed as co-inventor.  This patent is for a 7474 used to de-glitch
the wait/ready line of a Z80SIO.  Pure b***s*** invented by the patent
attorney (the de-glitching was mine--tthe b***s*** is the patent attorney's)
