For those who are interested, here's an article on Lemelson who was a serial patent abuser who took advantage of loopholes in the patent system to make a fortune - http://money.cnn.com/magazines/fortune/fortune_archive/2001/05/14/302986/index.htm

The Lemelson Center may be philanthropic, but if you're against patent system abuse, it's important to know where and how the money came from to found it.
