EXACTLY! RWT would be John Fitch, where ABB would be Robert Fulton. That was the analogy that I was making.

Fitch didn't have the financing to get his idea to market, and Fulton jumped in, stole his ideas and had the financing to get it to market in time.

By doing so, he received all the glory and/or recognition (and all that goes along with that) for being the creator of the steamboat.

PS: My son is in 3rd grade. He recently had an assignment to study this subject, which I helped him with. I found the likeness ironic and amusing!
