Tanis,

The schedule in Pomona indicates John Clark from the University of  Arkansas
is supposed to have a humorous talk on plant patents.  I would be interested
in any notes from his talk.  I read the Nafex thread on plant patents and
still have some unanswered questions.  Your link to the article in Chronica
Horticulturae was helpful.
