+         In April, Sir Roger Penrose, a British math professor who has worked
+         with Stephen Hawking on such topics as relativity, black holes, and
+         whether time has a beginning, filed a copyright-infringement lawsuit
+         against the Kimberly-Clark Corporation, which Penrose said copied a
+         pattern he created (a pattern demonstrating that "a nonrepeating
+         pattern could exist in nature") for its Kleenex quilted toilet paper.
+         Penrose said he doesn't like litigation but, "When it comes to the
+         population of Great Britain being invited by a multinational to wipe
+         their bottoms on what appears to be the work of a Knight of the
+         Realm, then a last stand must be taken."
