[Patentcenter] Off Topic - Kind of

[Richard Straussman]

Today I learned a new German word that seems so applicable to 
PatentCenter I had to share it:  verschlimmbessern.

I am advised that it means to take something bad and try to make it 
better, but in the process, you make it worse than before.  We NEED a 
word like that in English - particularly for many recent PTO 
"improvements"!!
