Not going away after all, really.
More-or-less crashed to rock bottom yesterday, but I'm doing better again. It's all a matter of adjusting to a wildly changed routine and so on.
I've had an odd brainwave: When I go through my brain-processing incidents and realisations, I need to write about them. That way, when I'm talking to my therapist about what's been going on, I'm not going to be all, "Uh... something? I forget the details..." and I also won't forget any revelations I have.
Today I went into town, and discovered that most of St George's Terrace is being torn up - and my usual bus stop isn't there until further notice. Still, I got my things done in town, then came home, and then went grocery shopping with Olly.
So, you know. Productive day.Current Mood:  tired

So, there's this thing, where someone will undertake some kind of criminal behaviour, and succeed. And succeed again. And again.
Where there's this psychological effect in which, even if it's subconscious, the person starts to become convinced that they're not lucky, they're just that good.
I think something like that happened to Tim Langdell. That, and/or he assumed that once granted a patent was beyond question...
Otherwise, it's hard to explain making fraudulent trademark infringement claims against EA Games. A massive corporation with lots and lots of money and lots and lots of lawyers... over something that was an established franchise for them.
If you hit "I'll see you in court!" against a company the size of EA, it's really not a good idea to do so over an issue where they can trivially, yet thoroughly, prove that everything you've asserted to the US Patent Office and the court is a lie.
