Hank, they might have replicated, but not with high COP and with long term stability. Like Parkhomov for example. And they might therefore argue that Rossi has retained some essential info, even though Rossi claims he told them everything. The devil is in the details.
This is an important question. The license agreement clearly states that any IP connected to the E-Cat, including any new IP that is developed, must be shared with IH. It is for the court to interpret the agreement, but I suspect that Rossi is not going to be happy with its resolution of this specific question.
