The "real" story on the origin of patent troll?

IAM has a post The real inventors of the term "patent troll" revealed which brings up the claim of Anne Gundelfinger to originating the term "patent troll." There's some discussion of it being a more palatable substitute for patent extortionist.

Separately, of Q. Todd, IAM has a different vision than Patently-O:

The fact that he has taken the AIPLA job, however, surely indicates that he will not be a part of any Obama administration.

Of course, if Obama loses, we won't have to worry about the divergence on Dickinson's projected future.
