6 links have been added on 2 ideas about #inventors.
  1. just putting this link here, pls join. keep the food chain as short as possible.

  2. yeah, it would be good if farmers market stallholders gave you small free samples so you could try new food or better still foreign food they grow. otherwise how do you know if you like it? According to this they need as much help as they can get.

  3. like the idea, it could work as well as the sites that give free samples for reviews. here are a list of them

  4. I have been looking for a site that does this for years now. Best I come up with is this answer on stack exchange / patents “Yes, there is a list. No, it is not exhaustive. In fact, the patent system is expressly designed for this purpose. We want people to know about expired patents and to use them as they see fit. The USPTO Patent Database provides patent images for all patents since 1970, and text files for all patents since 1976. Every patent issued before 4/10/2000 (as of this writing) is expired. Some patents after that date are expired, depending on whether the patent has been abandoned. There is no list of every single expired patent, but you can produce a list of the bulk of expired patents, and then search more recent ones on a case-by-case basis as necessary.”
