grolaw's Journal: Too many lawyers - could they all be Patent Lawyers?

Well, a 9th Cir decision was cited in an article today. I'd say that 2/3 of the folks responding were attorneys. Why?

I'm one. But I'm also a chemist & biologist with a long history of working with big iron and programmable lab calculators.

What can be driving all of these other legal types to read /.?

Are they all science geeks? What attracts so many? Is the porch light still on?
