"When you get something that has the name Kanye West on it, it's supposed to be pushing the furthest possibilities. I will be the leader of a company that ends up being worth billions of dollars, because I got the answers. I understand culture. I am the nucleus...The Michael Jordan of music...I am so credible and so influential and so relevant that I will change things."
—Kanye West, in recent NYT interview

No ego here! Somehow I think Michael Jordan had a slightly larger world-wide audience even after he's been retired for a decade. I wonder how long before he ends up in trouble with the IRS.

But I could be mistaken.

YES! And a unanimous ruling! It's always been understood that things in nature cannot be patented, I don't know why the patent office didn't reject applications like this from the beginning. But it's well-known that the U.S. patent office is underfunded and understaffed and unable to keep up with the rapid rate of change in new tech fields.
