Bwahahaha, you mean the "Sonny Bono Copyright Act"? The one that
Congress slapped their recently deceased colleague's name onto so they

I don't think you're the cynic here...

Hmm, can they really do that? At least I
don't think US patent law
allows it, otherwise the pharmaceutical companies would do the same
thing to block generic drugs.
Nexium is a small adjustment to the Priolosec formulation from what I
understand. I could be wrong tho.
Disney just has their legal department change copyright laws when
they need to extend the profit life of Mickey Mouse.
OK, I'll stop being a cynic any day now. ;-)
