<font class="QuotedText">&gt;  patent applies to anyone using the patented material as well. </font>
 
Can anyone tell me if this is for real under USofAn patent law? Because 
under Brasilian patent law, you can use whatever patented invention in a 
personal, non-profit-generating way. But we also _explicitly_ forbid 
software, business methods, and game rules patents.

This is basically true in the US, though in practical terms, nobody is likely to sue over a
patent being used non-commercially by an individual.
