wow

phone interviewed the patent examiners and unexpectedly was dragged into hectic arguments. 
The two guys attacked my arguments in return.  It was really hostile.  for a moment I thought I was arguing again in some moot court competition...the only difference is I am on my own, no team members....almost traumatized by this phone call.... such unexpected hostility.

But now I know and will be prepared next time.......

so much to learn everyday
