NPR story on Acacia

Anyone catch the piece this morning on NPR about Acacia?



My favorite part was the portion of the interview with Acacia's Executive VP
and Counsel Rob Berman explains,

"...our strategy is to frankly, dip our beak, and just take a little bit of
money from a lot of people ..."

This might sound familiar to those of you who have seen "Godfather 2" --
recall the scene where that exact phrase is used by the Black Hand, the old
school Don of the neighborhood, as he threatens the young Vito Corleone for
a cut of his business. A wonderfully fitting commentary on the current state
of intellectual property law in the United States.
