The Red Queen's Race

I didn't get any amendments this week, and I finished an Office Action on one of the four that I had, so I'm down to three, all paused; two are paused because the patent applicants get a little more time to respond to the Board of Appeals decisions affirming my rejections, and one is paused because another unit in the Patent Office is apparently waiting to take a look and decide whether to agree with me that the currently pending claim is in their area, not mine.

I also did an Office Action on my oldest Regular New case, and I'm searching the prior art for whatever I can find relevant to my next Regular New case.
