Quote of the Week<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cPeople equate patents with secrecy, that secrecy is what patents were designed to overcome. That’s why the formula for Coca-Cola was never patented. They kept it as a trade secret, and they’ve outlasted patent laws by 80 years or more.\u201d<\/em> Craig Venter, American Biotechnologist<\/p>\n
