   Rank Name University Number of Citations Age of unethical person

   2 Robert Merges University of California, Berkeley 920 59

   A sign of the fall of the USA. Mark Lemley, the unethical, is the most cited and admits that bur ning down the patent system makes him money and that he has ties with Google.

   Never read one of his “papers” (or blog posts) that wasn’t outrageously unethical.

   What is the application number of the hotel room?
   1. 2.1

      Hmmm . . . is it Jenny Jenny 867-5309?

      If so; given today’s Acorda decision; it’s actually now blocked by the prior art Pennsylvania 6-5000 …
      1. 2.1.1

         That depends on what the definition of “is” is…

      Claim 1

      A hotel room, comprising:
      four walls defining a common area of the hotel room;
      a bathroom including a door to the common area, the bathroom at least partially defined by one of the four walls;
      an angled wall extending at an acute angle from the one of the four walls, the angled wall not extending to a ceiling of the hotel room;
      a dead space formed in part by the angled wall, the dead space disposed between the bathroom and the angled wall and inaccessible from the common area, the dead space not extending to the ceiling of the hotel room; and
      a usable space disposed directly between the dead space and the ceiling, and accessible from the common area.
      1. 2.2.1

         I think its the dead space that is the key.
      2. 2.2.2

         Thank you. Spent entirely too much time yesterday trying unsuccessfully to find this. Claim 5, wherein the bed is connected to the sofa by an end table. Brilliant!
