Couldn't  some case be made based on the length of time these  
practitioners  have had, and based on the inherent value of what they  do?

James:
This is a decision made by an international trade commission on patent  
protections. We as artists also have a stake in these decisions, and seek  
protection for our rights to art and intellectual property. We can't be  hypocritical 
about this issue. If the owner of a patent seeks to protect his  rights, and 
those rights are protected by law, or in this case, by agreements,  that is his 
right.
