Outsourcing the drive-through order taking process cuts time required in
half.

"Pull off Interstate 55 near Cape Girardeau, Mo., and into the drive-through
lane of a McDonald's next to the highway, and you'll get fast, friendly
service, even though the person taking your order is not in the restaurant -

In the same issue:

"SAN JOSE, CALIF. - Acacia Research Corp. went after some of the biggest names
in broadcasting last month, suing nine companies for an estimated $100 million
for allegedly violating its patent on streaming video.

The Acacia patent the Electronic Frontier Foundation objects to is on "the
transmission of digital content via the Internet, cable, satellite and other
means."
