Dear GLLUGers,

The problem is that the eurocrats are not morons.  They are,
in fact, quite clever and adept in the areas that matter to
them, e.g. their salaries and their jobs.

Unfortunately, they are susceptible to lobbying (because
this is the drivel they regurgitate all the time) and the US
has been lobbying the EU extremely hard for the EU to come
into line with the US on software patents.

Hopefully the UK will see the madness in all this and refuse
to play Brussel Sprouts.

Regards,

Mick               /"\
