Hi Gary!

Sounds like a plan....kind of like Scotty in Star Trek being
asked how long to repair the warp drive, he tells the
captain, a good 12 hours....when the captain leaves, one of
the other engineers says Chief, you know we can do that in
8-10 hours...Scotty says, I know, but if we do it in less
time, he'll think we are miracle workers...

Same here....Trojan horse with a pleasant surprise.....but I
still don't see a patent as ever doing any good...

It only takes a very few modifications or enhancements to
become a completely different and new patent.

You wouldn't have the money to legally challenge large
companies in court.

You wouldn't ahve the staying power to last for years and
years of legal manipulation...all during that time, the
other companies would be selling the machines all over the
place...your slim hope of winning to get a piece of those
sales is risky at best.

And the probability that your overunity device would be
placed under a secrecy order because it would risk world
economies when oil is no longer needed for fuel, all the
auto manufacturers and motor manufacturers would have to
retrofit to manufacture these new motors and install them
into vehicles...

I wouldn't touch it...no patents for anything that would
impact so many industries and societies...too much
temptation for others to rip it off...but for other devices
of less worldwide interest, patents work fine...
