Why not have both?!? Billions in royalties plus having your name live on. Why do you have to choose? Rossi is not a fool. He knows it is worth billions. Why would he sell for millions? I sure wouldn't. The people he is dealing with seem to be straight arrows. I doubt they would offer millions. That would be an insult. Most people who invent or develop technology like this are not selfless people working for the greater good of humanity. They do it because they love technology but also because they love money. See, for example, Edison, Bill Gates and for that matter, me. (Gates was a superb programmer. One of the best. You may have read otherwise, but I used some of his early programs that he himself wrote, and they were really good.) - Jed
