Perhaps it is the winning path for this technology but for his investors? I have a bit of experience with international patent law, having paid for a rocket engine patent <http://www.google.co.in/patents/US6212876>'s international filing. In my situation, there was no option but to obtain a patent in every jurisdiction in the world because it takes only *one un protected* jurisdiction anywhere in the world to absorb _all_ of the profit stream from that technology: Set up a launch and manufacturing facility in the unprotected jurisdiction and have everyone send their payloads to that jurisdiction.
However, with something like LENR the game is entirely different. All it takes is *one* *protected* jurisdiction anywhere in the world to realize enormous profits.
