This is a follow up to previous MSM articles in May. There's a picture of the tablet here:

Given the fact that most museum quality artifacts have been stolen or destroyed in IRAQ during or since the war, I don’t quite understand why you would send it back there. Leave it here for a decade or two, until they get straightened out. Then we can give it back to them.

Hobby Lobby got smeared up and down over this.

I hope they got their money back, at least.

Let us hope this is not returned to Iraq only to be destroyed by Muslim iconoclastic zealots who, like American statue and history burners, destroy anything they don’t agree is part of their religious dogma.

Speaking of which:

I’m looking for a brick maker here on FR.

I have a novel idea that might be worth exploring, I need someone skilled in that art to help evaluate the technical feasibility, any contributions of techniques or implementation will earn a place on the inventors line of the patent.

Because it is a novel idea, and is probably patentable, you will need to sign a standard boilerplate NDA before we can talk.

At this point I need someone to invest a little time, materials and effort, not much. I expect the concept to drop seamlessly into normal brick making processes.

I need someone skilled in the art to offer their unbiased opinion.

Any contributions to the IP (Intellectual Property) you make earn you a place on the patent, you will also get some shares of founders stock (in my experience usually worthless, but the times it’s not? Oh mamma!)

Money? I don’t anticipate any extraordinary out of pocket expenses, if it’s as viable as I think it, is there will be no shortage of investors and customers.

If you are a person of faith I think you will find the idea interesting and worthy. Even if you know nothing about brick making, I’d like your input on one facet of the concept. You’ll still need to sign an NDA as above, and of course contributions to the idea earn a bit of founders stock and patent inclusion as above.

I hope Hobby Lobby made a copy before the Feds seized it.
