I think he refers to the fact that the device has now been independently manufactured in the U.S. This is a critically important step. It is a replication, only better. A "replication" in laboratory science is loosely defined. Some replications are quite different from the original. Whereas a technology transfer in industry means -- or should mean -- they made the same machine down to the screws on the faceplate, and it worked the same way, according to specs. This puts to rest Guglinski's worry that Rossi might drop dead, and the secrets might die with him, the way Patterson's secrets did. Ross has transferred his knowledge to another group of people, who have proved they mastered his knowledge. They are not all going to die at one time, so the secret will not be lost no matter what happens. (This is real life, not a thriller movie.) - Jed
