Abstract

Often when I am doing work related to patents and IP, I find myself talking a different language. It is a strange legal dialect that patent lawyers have developed over many years. Now while its original purpose was likely to abstract the legal process and define a set of legal concepts that simplified discussions of cases, it has achieved a secondary goal of confounding and confusing engineers the world over.
