What if solid state engine was invented

Unless my customer insists, I tend toward recording and witnessing, but keep as art. If a patent conflict shows up later, you can document "prior use" and invalidate the patent... maybe even claim that patentee reverse-engineered my work, and copied it :-) I'm in the midst of one of those right now. And I have great fun being nasty to the opposition attorneys... at Saturday's deposition we had one of those "you're too dumb to understand" moments ;-) ...Jim Thompson

The inventor should spam the newsgroups with his pitch in an attempt to find enough suckers willing to invest in it before the authorities shut him down.

No, I am not looking for investors and if such was invented it would be priceless. May be if small license was sold to every country in the World then that would prevent it from military abuse.

I suspect if some guy invented a working gravity polarizer at home,the FEDGOV would make it a military secret so fast your eyes would water.

but then Comrade Hussein would leak it to Iran or the communists anyways.

Nope. They can put a national security hold on a patent. Happened to some guys here (Seattle) in the '70s who came up with a telephone voice scrambler good enough to upset the Feds. I think it happened to one of the early LASER patents, too.

No IP, no investors. No investors, no business...

RSA got their patent. Although that was invented by an Englishman.

That's widely available in Afghanistan.
