I'm having trouble following the names of the individuals and companies involved. I will need to do some more reading. What Sterling Alan says about John Rohner does not inspire confidence: > In response to this seeming contradiction, John replied that he purposely > sent the engine without some of the components, such as the starter motor, so > that it wouldn't be able to be run.

I take it Michael McKubre was making no claims about the operation of Intelligentry's engine, which is connected to John Rohner, and was referring instead to something Bob Rohner had shown him? Or maybe Bob Rohner demonstrated Intelligentry's device to McKubre? Eric
