Suppressing Revolutionary Energy Technologies

G) Section 181 applications: Both Dr. Steven Greer (featured in Item B) video) and Dr. Tom Valone (formerly with the US Patent and Trade Office) have extensive background related to the revolutionary energy technology field. Both have repeatedly mentioned that some unknown percentage of revolutionary energy devices have been kept off the market by application of Section 181 of the US Patent & Trade Law.
These Section 181-188 provisions were part of the "Invention Secrecy Act of 1951." This 1951 federal legislation was an extension and amplification of two prior invention secrecy laws, passed during war-time eras, in 1917 and 1940.
Various well-known inventors of revolutionary energy technologies - including Victor Schauberger, Adam Trombly, Bruce de Palma, Stan Meyers and many others - have spoken of being served with "DoD gag orders," or Section 181 applications.
It is virtually certain that most viable revolutionary energy technologies that have disappeared, have done so via the more common "black-shelving" methodology. But, where this method hasn't been feasible - or where the military sector has had direct interest in applying the technology - it seems Section 181 has been a common method for withdrawing revolutionary technologies that could "seriously disrupt" status quo economic or political equations. This said, coming up with reliable information re: Section 181 application is problematic, because of the "classification" of such information, and the prohibition applied to inventors, disallowing them from even talking about their restraint orders.
An independent attorney practicing in the biotech area, on his own website, addresses the Section 181 issue, saying, "Secrecy orders are imposed by the PTO upon specific recommendation by defense agencies, including the Army, Navy, Air Force, National Security Agency, Department of Energy and National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The PTO conducts an initial security screening of all patent applications." He continues, "At the end of fiscal year 2006, there were 4942 secrecy orders in effect, some of which have been in effect since the 1930s."
Now, one might wonder, just what type of invention might be so key to status quo arrangements that the one-year secrecy provision provided for by Section 181 would have been renewed annually for...fifty years? Perhaps this is something that "We the people" should demand to know - as we face the prospect of near-term environmental catastrophe and/or "planetary meltdown," with the virtually certainty that hundreds of mass-production ready revolutionary energy technologies, are among the approximately 5000 "impounded patent applications" held by our own government.
Could it be that the number of revolutionary energy devices, among the 4900+ patents locked down by our own government, is well over a thousand, perhaps even amounting to several thousand? It seems certain that the number is well into the hundreds, and probably well over a thousand. Dr. Ted Loder, Chief Technical Officer for the Orion Project - one of the most important energy initiatives in the world - gave an interview in May of 2008, in which, speaking of Section 181 sequestering, said, "People within the Patent Office that we know have told us there are four to five thousand patents that fall into that category, and most of them deal with energy production technlogies."
The "four to five thousand" figure Dr. Loder mentions is reported by other independent investigators (including the report linked below). Meanwhile, he is saying that PTO inside sources indicate that many, possibly a majority of these impounded patents deal with revolutionary energy production. This is something the public now has urgent "need to know" about.
The original 1951 lnvention Secrecy Act was designed to protect the "national security" of Americans. Our national security, meanwhile, is now seriously threatened by the continued withholding of these revolutionary energy and transportation solutions - many of which were developed via taxpayer funding. We are going to war over limited oil resources, needlessly polluting the environment and burning up the biosphere, while our own government (DoD, PTO) withhold the solutions we and others need. This means that the spirit of this 1951 legislation was fundamentally violated, long ago, and we now urgently need to rectify the situation. These technologies are being withheld to uphold status quo financial and political arrangements, while our national and international security landscapes are both severely damaged.
Here, you can read a ten-page report written by an MIT professor in December, 2005 - which recommends the creation of a special commission to look into this "invention crisis" issue.
Dr. Tom Valone is a former senior Patent Examiner with the US Patent & Trade Office. Today, he runs Integrity Research Institute, which organizes conferences and publishes books and articles on revolutionary energy topics. Tom recently granted an interview to Conscious Media Network, in which he discusses Pentagon-related patent impounding. He specifically mentions the case of Stan Meyers (Section A, above) who, according to Tom, was told, by a Pentagon official, that his technology was being "secretized." Meyers successfully resisted this attempt at patent impounding, by indicating that his work was already in circulation.
The next thing that happened, as Dr. Valone relates in this interview, was that Meyers ran out of a restaurant (in Ohio) where he was meeting to negotiate the development of his technology, saying he'd been poisoned. He died soon thereafter. This is one in a very long saga of similar incidents - demonstrating that, where Section 181 patent impounding fails to keep devices off the market, then more conventional "black-shelving" and garden-variety suppression methods, are typically employed. But, the good news is that greatly increased awareness of these topics, especially due to the advent of the internet, is ultimately dooming such heavy-handed repression efforts to failure. Here, you may watch a five minute excerpt of this interview.
My own sense is that we need some form of a Truth-and-Reconciliation process to help the American and global public come to terms with these upsetting and "inconvenient truths." Given that we now desperately need to get the revolutionary energy technologies out on a highly accelerated basis to deal with environmental and humanitarian "international security" issues, any such T&R process should be designed to assist re: redirecting financial and human resources into this particular plank of the developing Global Commons Action Plan process.
