I didn't know that about you JoBob.
I am drawing up some patent application illustrations right as I'm typing this- I'm a patent application illustrator for a living!

And yes, can't confuse copyrights with invention patents.
Wahine- might be a good idea to talk to a patent attorney and learn about the process and about your rights before thinking about working with any manufacturers or splitting your rights to the invention with someone else who 'wants to help make it happen'. Not that it's bad to work with others to make an invention happen, but you should know what your options are first and how they will effect you.

We've talked about that before, many moons ago. Have another eggnog.

Heck, I can't remember back that far, and eggnog's got nothin' to do with it!

[jobob]

Oh, I can relate.

Oh gawd. I have eggnog and Dagoba downstairs.

Well then, you're set!

I wrote everything up the way Jobob had advised, got it signed off and had it notarized. Now I have a meeting with a product developer on the weekend who wants to get rolling on details so we can start researching materials and manufacturers. This might really happen after all.

I'll let you know when Isle de Yoda is available for retreats and such.
