Shouldn't a revolutionary technology be top secret? Then why did the Army, Navy, Air Force, and DOE disagree.
"Secrecy not recommended"
If a patent application contains certain keywords like "nuclear bomb" or "cold fusion" it is sent to a initial (licensing) review board where it is reviewed by interested defense and government agencies.
If it is of interest to our national security and a government agency wants to retain the technolgy through a licensing agreement, then the patent app would have been classified as secret and it would never have been published.
The Army, Navy, Air Force and DOE evidently didn't see anything of national interest contrary to all the hype that caused thousands of honest folks to lose their investment money.
And in fact, if Loch/CDEx actually thought the technology would "sell like hot cakes" (TM- p4316) shouldn't they have been concerned about allowing the application to be published and viewed by their competition?
