Scott and all,
Hey what do you know about people patenting fungal application processes? Just a got a call from a fellow who after hearing about what we are doing with the soil/ pasture restoration wants to come out from Portland.
He has a non-profit with patent lawyers on his board that are working to liberate the numerous patents on the application processes for applying specific fungal cultures to specific chemical brown fields in bioremediation efforts.
So we are being advised to patent this application process to protect it for public use or we all could get sued for using it and or teaching/promoting it!
God damn these people and this adolescent culture.
