Ok I agree with you there. But enforcing a patent is a whole different
story. Someone on the list might file the patent but wont be able to
enforce it. If you cant enforce a patent then what’s the point? The only
thing it would do is not allow the original poster to obtain a patent.

In a sane world you’d be right. But we’re talking about patents, and
logic, reason, fairness, and sanity don’t apply.

No one on this list can file the patent because this would constitute as
prior art wouldn’t it?
