A patent claim is ruled obvious if...
That is not the letter of the law, that is just a policy, a mechanism supposed to achieve the functionality specified by law. I know it was obvious because when I first heard the functionality of a TiVO, I knew the mechanism, without having it explained, and I'm not even a video engineer. That is obviousness: it didn't take even a second's thought. That is what the policy is trying to agree with, and if it doesn't then it's a wrong policy.
But then, we already knew the patent office is incompetent. Wrong policies abound.
The offer still stands.
Serious offers come with a real name, credentials, and contact information. They are not posted under a silly pseudonym without so much as an email address.
complaining without really doing anything accomplishes nothing
As opposed to making insincere and ridiculous offers? Or making appeals to an institution you consider grossly incompetent?
But you might be surprised at the power of complaint in democratic society.
