Ich möchte hier mit kundtun, dass ich mir folgende Patente schon 1845 rechtlich
gesichert habe und dafür von nun an Milliarden Mark Geld verlangen möchte:

* Das Bewegen der Maus nach rechts oben.
* Das Betrachten einer Website Nachmittags um 14 Uhr 12
* Das Drücken des Buchstabens "O" mit dem rechten Ringfinger

Wer obenstehende Handlungen in den letzten Jahren mutwillig und rechtsbrüchig
unternommen hat, ohne an mich super viel Geld zu überweisen, sollte das heute noch
nachholen. ;-)
