I have an interesting story in The Roanoke Times about Andrew Knight — stop me if you’ve heard this — a guy who has filed a patent for a plot. Read it here.
Here the problem - it (that plot) has been done. To death. Literally and figuratively - pun intended. A person can’t patent something already in common use.
