I never understood why people think we should try and abolish software patents. We can't. Period. There's too much money in them. We can attempt to reform or reshape them so they are less destructive, but crying for total abolition seems to be akin to attempting to abolish the IRS. It might make sense in a perfect world, but it will never, ever happen.
