B*A*N*K*E*R thank you for the clarification on MS technology
I felt certain no one in there right mind would neglect patenting such a useful and humanitarian technology and vaguely recalled this thread already confirming the patent(s) for longs at that time. Obviously we have many more new longs now keen to get the story straight and so they should. So from a DD standpoint for newbies and others I think it is still worth Dean visiting this topic in the next CC if only to set the facts straight on patents.
Third hand information can be dangerous (no offense) but , I feel certain the military must also be interested in this technology if they are not using it already, for operations in theater and places like say Iraq. Which raises the question is the US military using (or benefiting from) the MineSeeker Technology for offensive missions eg. in Afghanistan where IED's grow like potatoes...
Perhaps Dean ought to visit both questions but frankly I'm not convinced he can because of confidentiality reasons, particularly with regards to the military applications if they do for a fact exist. MHO

Anyway the chips fall. There is no better substitute than YOUR OWN DD
Including mine...good luck!
