Great article! I fully agree with this, and that has been a common lunch discussion topic among mathematicians for some time. Software patents could stifle pure mathematics research, if they were consistently enforced.

This article is another reason why I'll miss Groklaw, and another example of how Groklaw is about much more than just the SCO case.
