While I agree with Mr. Stallman that the written word should not be patented,
it is probably for much deeper philosophical reasons concering the very great
difference between copyright and patent, which Mr. Stallman did not mention.
Thank you for reminding the list of the reason why the term
"intellectual property" is incoherent and must be rejected.
(As you can see, I don't bring it up EVERY time it is relevant.
Sometimes I leave that to you ;-).
