  USPTO EXAMINERS

  I WOULD LIKE THE PTO TO TAKE ON THE TASK OF TEACHING THEIR EXAMINERS ENGLISH, MOST PARTICULARLY IN HIGHER ARTS. MANY ARE SO POOR AT COMMUNICATING, THEIR SUPERVISORS CANT UNDERSTAND THEM! ALTERNATIVELY, SINCE THERE ARE MANY QUALIFIED UNEMPLOYED AMERICANS WHO SPEAK THE LANGUAGE WHY NOT OFFER JOBS TO BE EXAMINERS ONLINE? THEY COULD BE HIRED PART OR FULL TIME, WITHOUT NEED TO CREATE MORE OFFICE SPACE, ETC. THEY COULD WORK ...more »

  I WOULD LIKE THE PTO TO TAKE ON THE TASK OF TEACHING THEIR EXAMINERS ENGLISH, MOST PARTICULARLY IN HIGHER ARTS. MANY ARE SO POOR AT COMMUNICATING, THEIR SUPERVISORS CANT UNDERSTAND THEM!

  ALTERNATIVELY, SINCE THERE ARE MANY QUALIFIED UNEMPLOYED AMERICANS WHO SPEAK THE LANGUAGE WHY NOT OFFER JOBS TO BE EXAMINERS ONLINE? THEY COULD BE HIRED PART OR FULL TIME, WITHOUT NEED TO CREATE MORE OFFICE SPACE, ETC. THEY COULD WORK FROM HOME, AND COMMUNICATE VIA EMAIL, PHONE, ETC... SURELY WE HAVE AMERICANS THAT CAN DO THESE JOBS.. I DONT BLAME ANYONE FOR NOT WANTING TO LIVE IN THE DC AREA, BUT WHY COULD THIS NOT BE DONE FROM ANYWHERE WITH THE AVAILABLE ACCESSIBILITY THESE DAYS? I WANT AMERICANS WORKING IN THE USPTO. I DONT NEED TO FEEL LIKE I HAVE DIALED A FOREIGN PATENT OFFICE, WHOSE EMPLOYEES, BY THE WAY, SPEAK BETTER ENGLISH THAN SOME OF OUR EXAMINERS! HIRE AMERICANS FOR THE USPTO... IF US STILL STANDS FOR UNITED STATES.

  ANOTHER SELL OUT OF US SMALL BUSINESS AND INDIVIDUAL INVENTORS

  THE APPOINTMENT OF KAPPOS OF IBM TO HEAD THE USPTO WILL DESTROY THE BACKBONE OF THE US ECONOMY. IT IS KNOWN THAT IBM STANDS AGAINST FREEDOM OF SMALL BUSINESS AND INDIVIDUAL INVENTORS FROM HAVING ACCESS TO RIGHTS GRANTED TO THEM AND HAS INTRODUCED IDEAS ON HOW TO MAKE SUCH GRANTED RIGHTS TOO OUTRAGEOUSLY PRICED IN TERMS OF EXCESSIVE AND DUPLICITOUS WORK REQUIRED TO ACCOMMODATE NEW USPTO RULES WHICH ARE AT TRIAL.

KAPPOS WILL SHOVE THESE THROUGH, AND THEN THE LITTLE GUY WILL ONCE AGAIN GET THE SHAFT FROM BIG BUSINESS.... DO NOT ALLOW THIS PEOPLE. THE BACKBONE OF THE NATION IS THE LITTLE PEOPLE. WE WILL DRY UP LIKE A PRUNE IN PROGRESS IF THIS MAN IS ALLOWED TO RUN THE USPTO. I WANT ACCESS TO ALL HIS DETAILS, NUMBER OF CASES, HOW MANY ALLOWED, WHAT ARTS, AND IF HE DOES NOT HAVE A 100% WIN RATIO IN APPEALS COURT.. IT WILL BE INTERESTING.. BECAUSE I DO! JON DUDUAS WILL KNOW IMMEDIATELY WHO WROTE THIS, IF HE IS STILL THERE, LADY IN RED HERE AGAIN...

  reality check

  i find it absolutely AMAZING that people are more interested in getting pot legalized than finding out who the person sitting in the chair of president is. further, if you go to the ostp blog, i find it APPALLING that all comments relating to the birth certificate issue are considered off topic under TRANSPARENCY? SOMEONE PLEASE ADVISE HOW THIS DECISION EQUATES WITH TRANSPARENCY.

  BIRTH CERT QUESTIONS FLAGGED AS OFFTOPIC ON OSTP SITE? WHY

  IF YOU RUN UNDER A PROMISE OF TRANSPARENCY, DONT YOU THINK YOU SHOULD OFFER IT? REALLY, WHY NOT JUST CALL IT OPAQUE AND BE HONEST.

  OSTP BLOG IS IGNORING CALL FOR BIRTH CERT.

  IGNORING THE ISSUE WILL NOT MAKE IT GO AWAY AND IT WILL LEAVE A BAD TASTE IN THE MOUTHS OF US CITIZENS WHO HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW WHO SITS IN THE PRESIDENT'S CHAIR.

  STOP ANTIQUATING PTO PRACTICES AND PUTTING UNDUE BURDEN ON SMALL ENTITY INVENTORS

  THE NEW RULES BEING DEBATED IN THE COURTS WILL MAKE THE APPEAL PROCEDURE AS ANTIQUATED AND LABOR INTENSIVE AS IS THE INTERFERENCE PRACTICE (WHICH COULD USE SIGNIFICANT UPDATING OUT OF THE STONE AGE). IF THE PLAN OF MAKING IT EXCESSIVE AND REPETITIVE TO THE POINT OF NAUSEA IS TO TAKE AWAY THE RIGHT OF THE SMALL GUY TO A GUARANTEED RIGHT BY MAKING IT FINANCIALLY PROHIBITIVE, AND THEREFORE GIVING LARGE ENTITIES AN UNJUST ...more »

IF THE PLAN OF MAKING IT EXCESSIVE AND REPETITIVE TO THE POINT OF NAUSEA IS TO TAKE AWAY THE RIGHT OF THE SMALL GUY TO A GUARANTEED RIGHT BY MAKING IT FINANCIALLY PROHIBITIVE, AND THEREFORE GIVING LARGE ENTITIES AN UNJUST ADVANTAGE, THEN THIS WILL DO THE TRICK. BUT AT WHAT COST? THE SMALL BUSINESS/INDIVIDUAL FORM THE BACKBONE OF THE NATION. NOT BIG BUSINESS. SO IF YOU BREAK THE BACKBONE OF THE NATION, THE USPTO WILL BECOME A GHOST TOWN.

  DO NOT WITHDRAW BUSH DEPORTATION RULE.

  ILLEGALS HAVE NO RIGHTS IN THE USA UNDER OUR CONSTITUTION. SO MR HOLDER YOUR WITHDRAWAL OF THE BUSH DEPORTATION RULE, ALLOWING ILLEGALS WITH NO RIGHTS TO ARGUE THEIR LAWYERS DID A BAD JOB TO STAY HERE LONGER IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL. EITHER FOLLOW THE CONSTITUTION OR GET OUT OF OFFICE.

  WANT A BETTER BALANCE SHEET FOR USA?

  FORGIVE ALL CAPS, HANDICAPPED, AND THIS IS JUST EASIER FOR ME. 1. TAKE ALL ILLEGAL ALIENS IN OUR PRISONS AND SEND THEM BACK TO COUNTRY OF ORIGIN, EXCEPT GITMO RESIDENTS. 2.

  MR OBAMA: PLEASE DO NOT SPEAK FOR US CITIZENS WITHOUT OUR CONSENT

  CALLING THE USA THE LARGEST MUSLIM NATION IS A SLAP IN THE FACE TO THIS FINE REPUBLIC AND ITS TRUE CITIZENS; THE COUNTRY BEING FOUNDED ON FREEEEDOM OF RELIGION AND HAVING CONSTITUTIONAL LIMITATIONS FRAMED TO FOLLOW ALONG THE GIST OF THE 10 COMMANDMENTS. TO CALL US A MUSLIM NATION IS OUTSIDE THE ETHICS AND MORALS SET FORTH IN THE LAW OF THE LAND, AND I FOR ONE, OBJECT TO YOUR SPEAKING FOR ME, ONE OF THE 'WE THE PEOPLE' ...more »

  EVERYONE SEND BARRY A $12.50 CHECK TO HELP HIM PAY FOR HIS LONG FORM BIRTH CERT

  ITS NOT ENOUGH WE ARE NOW GOING TO BE TAXED AT 110% OF INCOME FOR GENERATIONS. PERHAPS HE JUST CANT AFFORD THE FEE. SEND HIM A CHECK, UNSIGNED IF NECESSARY, AND HE SHOULD HAVE NO EXCUSE TO IGNORE ALL THE MAIL. ALSO WRITE SUPREMES AND REMIND THEM TO DO THEIR JOB IN THIS MATTER, I.E. UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION, AND FORCE A SHOWING. OTHERWISE HE WILL CONTINUE TO TURN USA INTO USSA.

  US CENSUS BACK UNDER CONTROL OF COMMERCE DEPARTMENT

  THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE NECESSITY TO MAKE SURE, AND HAVE SOMEONE TO OVERSEE AND MAKE RESPONSIBLE, TRUE NUMBERS BEING COLLECTED, NOT COUNTING DEAD PEOPLE, ETC. AS HAS BEEN FOUND TO HAVE HAPPENED IN THE PAST. IF THE NEW COMMERCE SECRETARY IS WILLING TO PLACED THIS IMPORTANT FUNCTION UNDER WHITE HOUSE CONTROL, HE SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE.
