I think the 27th is OK for me -- we could meet at my place - but I'm not
exactly centrally located.

LOTR - would like to but not in the budget -will try to get Robert to pay
for it. BTW Karen knew what "LOTR" stood for.

  Subject: Patents


  Guys (and June),

  We need to get together to put some patent stuff together. I talked to a
patent attorney today and he told me about a thing called a provisional
patent. It is far less formal and provides us with a mechanism to document
our ideas early in the process and it doesn't cost a fortune. A normal
patent will end up costing in the neighborhood of $30,000 a provisional is
$80. He also told me that investors are more likely to help us if they have
some way of protecting their investment. So doing this will help us get
funding.

  I have ideas for three possible patents that I'd like to discuss with you.
Any chance we can get together this week or between Christmas and New Years?

  Let me know what your availability is.

  Perry
