You know everyone has been looking at this case and now the reexamination of the patents AS THE DECIDING FACTORS ON THE FUTURE OF GLIDES. I have to disagree for several reasons, for one the war on glides kind of reminds me of the war on drugs. A few victories here and there from a legal standpoint, but despite billions of dollars being spent every illegal drug out there is available, even in small cities. Now I'm not suggesting anyone enter the drug trafficking business, or even start using for that matter, but STRICTLY as a business / strategy "session" if I was in the glide business or considering entering it I might watch the documentaries Cocaine Cowboys 1&2. Reading Reefer Madness by Eric Schlosser that chronicles the war waged by The United States of America v. Reuben Sturman and Phil Harvey would be on my list as well. Although like Cocaine cowboys Reefer madness deals a bit with the illegal drug business, it also tells the story of these two pornographers. Chicago Outfit (MOB) connected Reuban Sturman operated out of Cleveland , Ohio and controlled an enormous empire of adult related enterprises. Phil Harvey was based in Chapel Hill, North Carolina and operated Adam & Eve a large manufacturer of adult products and pornographic films. Both men had the attention of the Justice Department because the Attorney General of the United States Ed Meese objected to their products, regardless of the fact that what they were selling was legal (well apart from the skimming, tax evasion, and pay offs to the Gambino crime family & Chicago Outfit ). The book tells an interesting story of how these various inter-locking enterprises were operated in a ever changing daisy chain of Shell corporations & LLCs that couldn't be traced to the real owners.
For illustrative purposes: A New Mexican LLC can be set up without the operator or owner providing their name. No Members have to be listed on the forms to set up the LLC. No officers listed like in a corporation (no president, treasure NONE).
There are services that will set up these LLC's , attorneys that will serve as registered agent and not even KNOW YOU.
No paper trail leading to you. Literally these intitles hide the operators in well cloaked anonymity.
Lets say a Glide pusher wanted to bootleg "illegal" glides all over the world. With a carefully set up, constantly changing group of LLC's , the BIG BAD WOLF (attorneys for HR for illustrative purposes) would be faced with the untenable position of suing a long lists of Shell LLCs and accomplishing nothing at the end of the day. Monday they sue ABC manufacturing & Tuesday xyz LLC starts selling glides.
Glides could be paid for by money orders (not postal service money orders) with the PAYEE left blank to be filed in on receipt, or with cash. All delivered by Fed Ex. Sure it would require a few odd business practices but I believe Glide users will jump through a few hoops to clean with Glides. I also can see a many a bootleggers & Glide traffickers popping up all over the country. A well run network of "just among friends" distributors that buy their Glides from a guy named Flounder and sell them to their buddies in the parking lot of their local distributor, or occasionally the HOME DEPO parking lot.
Glides aren't going anywhere regardless of what HR does. They can sue till they are blue in the face and guys will still be buying GLIDES, and there will always be someone making & selling them, meeting that need.
You are talking about a product that is very easy to make, dirt cheap to make and sells at a premium mark up. There is no shutting that down. Prohibition proved that & the War on drugs proved that yet again. Manufacturing could occur in a well ventilated CAVE, with a few generators. If the United States military & CIA can't find Osama bin Laden.....

it would only cost around $50 bucks, each participant would just consider that a donation. I would also volunteer to process serve all papers to HRI in logan utah for free. I think that needs to go along with launching chemdrysucks.com
