Look up “Rollin White” and/or “George Selden”. Two patent grifters who f**ked over everybody else for seventeen years each.
Selden came a cropper when he tried to take on Henry Ford.
White, with Horace Smith and Daniel Baird Wesson in his corner, probably made the American Civil War last at least a year and half longer than it needed to.
Unfortunately for him, in the process he pissed off Ulysses S. Grant. The bill came due in 1869.

Patents could never keep up with or hinder these two super-geniuses…

There are almost a trillion reasons to sidle up to Elon in any joint venture.
Elon and Javier are not from the same planet.
Javier is from Nicoli Tesla’s planet, true genius, and innovation.
Elon is from Edison’s planet, buy and appropriate the minds of others.

But that other million things can be made, or copied…Javi should talk partnership before that happens.
Depends on whether or not they’re patented.

I emember an episode where Javi was working with/for Elon.
Javelon…just a hopeful figment of our imaginations.

Hard to explain Tesla, Spacex, Boring, and Neuralink using OPM (other people’s minds, he has plenty of his own money.
No the man is wack much like our American CEO, but both are certified geniuses, and not just in a prophetic cartoon.
Hope the title isn’t referring to a cookbook. 😉
You’re looking a little thin. Here, have another slice roast beef on rye…
