Talk:William F. Semple

Invalid patent
Since the eskimos, etc., were likely chewing seal blubber for thousands of years before the patent, is this patent valid or meaningful in any encyclopedic? As the first guy to put one over on the patent office? 98.210.208.107 (talk) 07:13, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
