acaicia using aim?
 

has anyone else received an instant message from these folks or is this just some lonely loser trying to get attention?

AcaciaResearchCo: Hello, this is Chip Harris from Acacia Research. I am contacting you in regards to our Patent Infringement packet we have sent to you. Have you had time to read it?
myscreenname: fuck you

Call them on the phone and ask for Chip.

as if.. ICQ is the standard and the numbers are plastered everywhere - even if they were to do this they wouldn't use aim (aim only i mean i've seen one or two references to this character today) - plus chip has better things to do like count the money he's made off his stock than sit in front of a machine and talk to porn nerds.
