Yeah, the incredible thing is that the patent was granted. Thinking
about the whole scenario, maybe the guy was only trying to demonstrate
that you can patent almost anything if the description is sufficiently
obscure or esoteric. (Seems like he may be correct.) Or maybe he
thinks he can sell the patent rights to some sucker for a hefty
profit.
