    If that is what you meant, then we had no issue.

    It looked like you were referring to Immunix because, in the quoted
    text, one paragraph only discussed Immunix (by name) and then the
    subsequent paragraph just said "them" and then talked about patents.
    There was no mention of SCC.

    So even if you meant SCC, the casual reader only saw "Immunix" followed
    by "patents", and would infer the obvious.
