THe Really Interesting World Of Patents!

My best friend has recently started back to school. She has been taking a few classes about the laws pertaining to patents. I was amazed with all the patent information there is out there. I thought you had to really have something good to get a patent. Turns out you just have to be the first one to come to the office and apply. I am shocked! Seriously, you can patent anything, as long as you are the first to try. And of course I supposed it cannot be a person, surely that is a rule! But, all in all, it is very interesting.
