Say, can somebody produce prior art for the use of the Chinese Remainder
Theorem in World Wide Web documents? If not, does that mean I can patent
it?
(Does the patent specifically say "world wide web documents"? In precise

importantly, what isn't? Why is a document returned via Z39.50 not a
World Wide Web document?)
