* '''2007-07-28''' [http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070728/ap_on_go_co/congress_patents_2 Congress moves to rewrite patent laws]: "Crustless peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches, a way to move sideways on a swing, a technique for exercising cats using a laser pointer – these are among the inventions patented in the United States over the years. Now [[110th US Congress|Congress]] is trying to cut down on poor-quality or downright ridiculous patents, and at the same time adapt the patent system to a high-tech era in which computers and other electronic devices may contain thousands of patentable parts."
