Because a specification may be fixed in time, but if the regular updates to seasonal influenza vaccines evoke one fictional character, it's the Red Queen ("Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place").
Namely, how claim construction, written description, and enablement might intersect with controversy in defining species or other taxa, reclassifications and emergence of new organisms over a 20-year term, and the depth of conservation of relevant biology.
With the examples of bacteria and influenza viruses, the article explores the challenges that evolution (of formal names, knowledge of biodiversity, and organisms themselves) can pose for organism-centered patents, and options for addressing them through taxonomy and phylogenetics.
Alas, the actual paper focuses more on viruses and bacteria than Pop-Tarts or filled pasta, but I'm still excited to see it published! www.doi.org/10.1093/jlb/...

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION I am a born again Christian. The Bible says that there will be a certain event known as the rapture, when born again Christians will be taken to heaven as Christ returns to take them away. There will then be a time of peril upon the earth known commonly as the tribulation period. During this time, the AntiChrist will rule, and claim to be the Christ. You will not be able to buy or sell without the number of the beast which is 666. The gospel will be greatly hindered. Anyone giving out the gospel will be beheaded, and those who trust Christ as their Savior will not be able to buy tracts or have them printed in any way. There will no way to give out the gospel anonymously, and yet many, in times of peril, will be seeking the Lord.
A homebuilt printing press for publishing after the rapture without drawing the attention of the Antichrist.
