Ah. So much for Jeff Bezos' statements about only using the One-Click
patent as a measure to defend against lawsuits directed toward Amazon.
Perhaps I'll see about getting a patent for respiration. But not to worry -
I promise that I'll only use it if someone tries to cut off *my* air supply.

P.S. The Outlook spellchecker says that "Bezos" is misspelled, and suggests
"bozos" as the replacement. :-)
