He is working with the University of Bologna, the oldest in the world. He has done a number of demonstrations and tests with scientists present, and he has let them look at his technology as far as he can at the moment. He is using the money from his former company to capitalize his venture. I’m not sure what he’s doing wrong.
What he is "doing wrong" is that somehow he is managing to suggest that he is ready to commercialize a process which has not even reached the level of a laboratory curiosity. I will be nothing less than amazed if there is anything there at all.
Can you describe even one case of a similar scientific development being commercialized in this fashion?
The important question I asked was, "Just what is the purpose of what you see happening?"
Some years ago I missed a great "demonstration" by a company which called itself "Bypass Engineering" which claimed to have a means of connecting the exhaust from a car back into its intake, thus creating a perpetual motion machine. Of course, they didn't call it that.
Some of my engineering colleagues did attend and told me it was a great show. Of course, no such system was ever developed or produced. It would not surprise me if the hype didn't encourage some people to be very interested in investing in order to get in on the ground floor of a revolutionary development.
So, I ask you; what is the purpose of what is presently happening? Why tell the public anything right now? Why use the time of other presumably competent scientists? What difference will there be because they are publicizing now versus later? Will any of the witnessing scientists guarantee any future buyer or investor that no money will be lost on this?
