Silly Patents

The remote for my Comcast digital cable has nine patents. What do you patent on a simple remote?

US Patents: 4,959,810 5,255,313 5,414,761 5,552,917 5,689,353 6,014,092 5,515,052 5,959,751 5,228,077

Adrienne thinks it’s funny that I occasionally rant about stupid things having excessive numbers of patents.

    I remember seeing around 10 patents on a simple milk crate. It’s silly.
