: Patent ArcadeIn memoriam: A loss to the Virtual World community...

The Patent Arcade is sad to report that we have lost one of our own. Steve Davidson, a friend, colleague, and groundbreaking attorney in the video game and virtual world fields, passed away unexpectedly this morning, December 2, 2008. Steve spent most of his career with Leonard, Street, and Deinard, and recently retired to his own private consulting practice. Steve and I worked together on the American Bar Association's Special Committee for Computer Gaming and Virtual Worlds, and we valued highly his insight, suggestions, leadership, and support. Our thoughts go out to Steve's family. He will be missed by us all.
