Stop it there! Why do you jump to the wrong conclusion?? I do manage a business so I am a pure capitalist I risk every day of my life my own capital. I bet on my business. Do you?! I do things for free too: it is an indirect way of supporting the business by letting others try the quality of work and to expand the network. Read well what I write. "Free" is not the same as "gratis". Free is about "freedom", like in "freedom of speech". About being fair in business ad give credit to others' ideas when credit is due. And yes I do sell free things, customers can do whatever they please with them, with one caveat, they must respect others freedom when they sell derived works. Did I say I do not like Rossi jobs and is not his way of doing business as a whole? indeed I think he is very good at it in many aspects. Not the website. That website will make him loose potential customers. Back to the point... The difference between a free informative website and a business website is about selling. On a business if you damage potential sales, you are doing a poor job with the website. Rossi's site does not look like, and it is not a business site, it is very "amateurish" at presentation and at technical level, it does not speak business language, not that of the $1M or more type of potential customer. I hope someone tells this to Rossi ASAP. mic > Do you have some ivory-tower objection to capitalism? You don't like to see people making a living? Do you think Rossi is obligated to give away secrets worth a trillion dollars? If you think people should give away their property, please send all of your money to me, at 1954 Airport Road. > > I cannot understand why people criticize Rossi for keeping this secret when it is the U.S. Patent Office that refuses to grant patents for cold fusion > > I cannot understand this attitude that Rossi should do whatever you say, or Mary Yugo says, even though what you want him to do would ruin his business. I wish he would do as I say only because I think it would be bring him more money, and it would bring cold fusion to the world more quickly. > > This is his discovery, his intellectual property, and his business. He can run his business any way he wants to. He has no obligation to tell us anything, or to do any public tests. If he wants to use obsolete web page software, that is his decision. We can criticize these decisions, or ridicule them, but people here act as if Rossi has a moral obligation to follow our orders. He does not. No businessman does. Thank goodness for that. Capitalism would not work if they did. Without capitalism we would all live in poverty. > > - Jed >
