The answer to last weeks puzzler was Abraham Lincoln. I threw a bunch of tricks in the answers that seemed like possible answers. If you got it, congratulations to you.

We have a Guest Puzzler this week……

Twister the Patent Puli has made a first, and most likely, not last appearance. He has been tracking the progress of the blog and wanted to put in his two cents. He provided the following patent puzzler……

For this week, a claim construction puzzle is provided. All you have to do is read the patent claim and figure out what it is?

An object, comprising:
(a) a Solid main Section having a diameter and a longitudinal length and extending a predetermined distance along said longitudinal length; and (b) at least one protrusion attached at one end thereof Said main Section and extending a predetermined distance therefrom and wherein Said at least one protrusion includes a Second longitudinal axis that is not in parallel alignment with a first longitudinal axis of Said Solid main Section; and wherein Said object is adapted to float on the Water.

Seems pretty simple….maybe? Possibly?

What is it?

Remember……the puzzles are meant to be fun and informative….not easy. We will give the answer in the next blog post on Monday. The answer will surprise you….even if consider yourself an expert on puzzles, patents or general knowledge.
