Think of where we'd all be if we had to pay someone who managed to put a patent on "the wheel". As was shown in the above link, others were working on similar wiper systems. Just like Alexander Graham Bell just barely put his patent in in time for the telephone (even THAT is disputed) before someone else did (Google "Elisha Gray").

Ideas are funny things. You know, if I see a better method of doing something at Ford, because I am a Ford employee I am not allowed to patent it?
TEAM PITA: Don't settle for a wannabe, only accept the real deal.
