To Cisco & Mr. Chandler,

This is an awesome notice, and a noble and respectable effort on behalf of customers. However, you never should have had to pay a patent troll.

"Tax" is an excellent term to apply to this situation, and hopefully congress does act soon to limit further private taxation. (One would think that such matters fall under frivolous lawsuits / litigation, which also unnecessarily tax the courts -- if more small business owners could take this to court and tax the patent trolls successfully, this matter would probably be handled quicker.)
