Looks like a site for the public to comment on patents.
Maybe...
Comments like "You ***..you stole my idea!" :)
Or....
You can ridicule patent 5443036: Using a laser pointer to exercise your cat.
Geeeezz....

One of the lamest patents I know of.

Why would somebody patent that?

I had a laser pointer experience recently that led me
to consider the idea of also filing a patent.
There was this pimp with an extremely huge dog. As
big the gog was as lazy it was. Some fellows in
our group got a laser pointer as xmas present.
These guys swapped the pointer amongst themselves to
make the dog move. The dog didn't move a milimeter,
didn't roll an eye, nothing, as if a marble cast,
but owner god mader each minute, until he finally
came over and made his point clear in a tone and
voice not really fitting the expensive restaurant
we were in.
Thus my patent idea : If the pointer doesn't make
the dog move, it at least make the dog owner move.
