To be fair, the American auto companies were behind the phony reports of Toyota accelerator problems. A lot of Americans were just fooled by the media.

Do they want to learn? (Hopefully) Do the professor have the knowledge? (Hopefully) Do the professor have time to have one-on-one discussions with every singel student? (Unlikely)

Even more funny (or tragic) is the reason they found him guilty. Losely translated from my memory:
"The defendant has such peculiar looks that the court finds it unlikely that any young woman would willingly have sex with him."

Submission + - Red Hat's plan for software patents in Europe (digitalmajority.org)
WMGarrison writes: "In 2005, as the battle over software patents reached its climax, Red Hat explained their plan for software patents: extend US-style patents to Europe, make software patents stronger and harder to defeat, and create an interoperability niche that would prevent patent claims on Windows-Linux interoperation. Instead of working with the Abolitionists — FFII, FSF, and hundreds of small software firms — to end software patents in Europe, Red Hat was working to rewrite the law and remove the protection from patents that Europe's small software sector had enjoyed until then."
