The few of us were not defending her because we know she's right. I don't have a clue if she's right, but from what I read about the first suit it seems to me that Philips thought they'd lose the case and therefore settled it out of court.

The few of us were just defending a scientist against the random "burn the bloody old witch" posts in this thread.

And regarding the recurring traffic lights argument: Has anybody thought about the fact that technology changes over years?

"In the mid 1990s, cost-effective traffic light lamps using light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were developed; prior to this date traffic lights were designed using incandescent or halogen light bulbs. " http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traffic_light


So why now? Why after so many years does she decide to "bark?"

It's not like most of this stuff was done incognito by other companies.
