Reminds me of trying to copyright "lets roll".....or the move to patent/copy right DNA.....
Some Distributists have attacked the idea of patents as, patently, unfair to normal competition and the natural path to thes insane ideas......

someone patenting a triangle-that would then conflict with the USA $1 bill, Treasury would have to shell out Fed Reserve notes galore......Masons too......
