No. NO. WHAT??? When would that ever be a good idea? "If you are successful enough, you can pay off the suit." You must be the biggest moron alive. |

Get over the insult already man, it was a joke 1 joke. Take things in proportion - you are already married with kids, how can insulting your penis size possibly be considered an ad hominem?
IN retrospect I'm guessing you probably have an average size penis - and being totally high can have effect to cause shrinkage. Totally understandable. |
ad hominem non sequitur. |

| Write the idea in a letter and mail it to yourself. Make sure it gets date stamped. Don't open it. Wait for them to release the idea. Sue them and use the letter as proof. |

i've heard of this idea before, or just get the letter dated and notarized maybe?
however, if the guy who actually invented the idea has any proof that he devised the idea before whatever date it was postmarked on the letter you sent to yourself, then you would be the one in the wrong, no?
i think the only viable option is to try to patent it yourself before he patents it and then slap it in his face if he ever makes it big. you'd have to be a huge to do something like that though. |

The US hass a first to practice, not a first to disclose system. It wouldn't matter if he got the patent issued first if the other guy can prove his invention came first (from notes, lab notebooks, emails, etc.). |
