What did we learn from the last one? ‘How To Survive A Plague’ . . . On The Lessons Of AIDS, The Benefits Of Fear, And The Potential For Rage.

What will we learn from this one?  Four truly sweet minutes.

PRKR, last discussed here, is looking better and better:  ParkerVision Receives Favorable Markman Order in Patent Infringement Action Against Qualcomm and HTC.  (I was so focused on Qualcomm, I hadn’t noticed HTC.  Are they a deep pocket, also?  A little Googling revealed that in 2o18, they were acquired by . . . Google.)
