The other thing that makes me wonder, "they" always say that the car companies bought the patents to keep others from building it... even the inventor. [/quote]

that actually did happen with the GM EV1 electric car. a guy came up with a better battery; finally got GM to buy it. then a company secretly owned by an oil company bought 51% of the company and shut it down.
