Timeline
What Meyer filed, wrote and was written about, on one line. Beneath each year, how many patents from the rest of the world the offices held his claims against, and how many later ones cite him — counted rather than listed, because they would drown his own.
295 of his own; every filing once, whatever it was published as.
