It appears that one Jim Cate was trained as an engineer but seems to have
worked a desk job in some other field for governmental agency. It appears
possible that due to budget cutbacks or other reasons jim may have left that
agency some time back. There appears the possibility that jim may have gone to
work for an RV dealer, and later (or earlier) a department store in the stereo
department. There appears some chance that should either of those positions
been filled by jim, he may have been employed as a floor saleman. There is the
chance that jim may have moved on to a boat dealer and if that might be the
case there is a chance that jim is now pushing boats for that dealer. Some
long chance exists that perhaps in the salad days of governmental employ jim
might have invested in MacGreagor stock.

any comments jim?

Nah, he's actually admitted to being a lawyer, no doubt one of the 99%
that Dave says makes the remainder look bad.

patent lawyers are trained first as engineers, decide that life is not for
them, then go to law school, decide that is not for them, then shuffle
paperwork to get/keep patents in hundreds of countries.

Neither fish nor fowl.

patent attornies are sorta like eggplant on hotdogs. nobody will hire them as
engineers, nobody will hire them as lawyers.
