Excuse me, do you have a license from the patent-holder of the Men's Room Bathroom Reservation System?  - "U.S. Patent 6,329,919 covers "an apparatus, system and method for providing reservations for restroom use."   Welcome to the world of business method patents.

Tobacco litigation news -  Law.com reports that Dep't of Justice attacks Lawyers for Big Tobacco.  Meanwhile, here in New Orleans the medical monitoring class action against the tobacco companies finally got underway yesterday.  It took more than a year to complete the jury selection process.  Let's see how long the trial takes.

Legal Research: Lexis, Westlaw, or Google? - Great post over at Virtual Chase on this subject, with input from Jerry Lawson and Tom Mighell.  All three of these sites should be in your news aggregator, or visited frequently, if you are interested in hot legal tech trends.

Bob Ambrogi's site now has RSS - From Virtual Chase comes the word: Do not click this link! Instead copy and paste it into need a newsreader like NewsCrawler or AmphetaDesk. With a newsreader, you can read the headlines from Bob Ambroji's LawSites."

Well I like Bob's blog and I would like to get it in my Radio News Aggregator, and so I pasted the link in my subscriptions.  It didn't work.  I got the following error message:

Can't subscribe to the channel. The most likely cure is to check the URL in a web browser and see if you can get it to read the feed. The following message probably won't help you figure out what went wrong, but we include it here because it might. "Assignment over existing table object "s" is not allowed. Delete the object first, or use table.assign to override protection."

I notice that the feed in in RSS 1.0.  I seem to remember that Radio didn't do 1.0 so good.  Could that be the reason?
