I appreciate your post and mostly agree, but it sounds like RavenQuest are not concerned about patents based on the following....
A few weeks ago RavenQuest had a Third Quarter conference call, I missed most of it but recorded the remainder without actually listening to it until today.
The RavenQuest CEO was asked about the question of patents and his reply was basically that they were "very comfortable" as he says that his patent lawyer's advice was that "prior art" would apply. I've attached the audio clip mp3 file to this post, it is his entire reply to the patent question and is 2 minutes 38 seconds in length.
I'll just add, he does not name any specific company, he mentions patents can't cover "prior art" (things that existed before the patent), a patent has to cover specific unique design aspects. My first reaction to that is that the RotoGro patent does cover specific unique design aspects, so to me his argument does not make sense, unless he's implying that what I thought were unique design aspects of RotoGro (at the time of patent application) where also "prior art" ?
