RDS read your own post...my god are you kidding me !! YOu just posted.
"I have a recording of Jonathan Burst actually claiming IFT owns patents on ALL their products, something I double checked and refused to relay to anyone else as truth."
THis says that you have a recording form Burst that IFUE has patents on ALL their products.
You have lost it. IF you have a recording like you say...its a audio file now isnt it?
Regarding the " misguided post" staement that was my personal opinion in the way you phrased the statement about patents seeming to say IFT only recently issued a patent when in fact most have been filed long ago.
