Harry, I realize it's not the fault of the court -- that's why I say they should have the option to review the patent at time of suit and say "no, this patent is ridiculous".

Actually, that's what can happen, at least in the US.

One defense to a patent infringement suit is that the patent is invalid because the patented idea is not one that should have been patentable in the first place.
