if you wanted to hit something like all the g20 countries - do you know how many patent filings you'd have to complete off hand (just a rough estimate - 5 vs 20, do certain countries use the same database of patents, etc...)?

We had a choice of countries to choose from. We picked the countries that we saw were relevant and where we wanted to market and went from there.

Most countries that I saw had their own database of patents, written in their own languages. For example, our patent attorneys were asking us about similar patents from Brazil that came up. It was all in Spanish or Portuguese but we saw the pictures and had to explain the difference between the existing patent and our patent.


Thank you :). That was a great response and what I was looking for!


Also - I'm sure you have it covered, but if any other system is similar to the US patent system - don't trust the pictures! It's all about the claims.

/edit spelling - right hand was on the wrong set of keys for a few words....


Yes, most of our claims that our lawyers submitted, the important ones went through. It's very complicated work and all a game in the end with the examiners.

You just reminded me that I need to start organizing all our patents in order. It's all a mess right now.

Does this link work for you? Are you able to make an order online?

http://www.swarovski.com/Web_US/en/5153433/product/Circlet_Small_Hoop_Pierced_Earrings.html

It shows it's $79.00. Buy one for your gf. :nod:

I checked the store here in Vietnam, and they are VND $3,800,000 (USD $175) :lol:

In regards to diamonds, Swarovski generally do not set jewelry with diamonds. Normally its with their brilliant created stones and crystals.

Great, another movie theater shooting. I haven't gone to a theater in over a year and at this point, it appears safer to surf on a North Carolina beach.

Hey EArl, I'll be OT so I'll put it here. Try jackfruit man. A week to a month is good. It'll be so fragrant.

Also try raisins or prunes. The longer the better imo.

Most people cannot stomach the smell of jackfruit. Very strong odor.

I've had some experience with this like with Germans, Austrians, French, etc. and whenever I did offer jackfruit in the past, they got put off by the smell.

Thanks. I don't think I've tried jackfruit. Ive heard strawberries also match well.
