Hydroxy Research Group Meeting Minutes for 1 May 2007

1. When funds became available, Brad was able to refill his printer's
black ink cartridge, purchase business cards blanks, and was able to
print out last week's HRG meeting miniutes, and printed out
personalized HRG business cards, which were presented to HRG members
present. For those HRG members not present, the business cards were
e-mailed out as an attachment, noting that Brad would print further
cards upon request.
1. As many HRG members were complaining that Brad had not yet
finished his vehicle hydroxy cell installation, Brad produced his
"To-Do" list, which prioritized work which must first be completed
before any time could be spared for experimentation/hobbyist efforts
at hydroxy production. Many HRG members grumbled at this, but as they
were not willing to spend more of their time experimenting, and none
were forthcoming to help Brad with priority work needed before further
experimentation, the topic of conversation moved to other matters.
Clearly, with Brad's present work load, progress will be gradual and
as time, money and work priority permits.
2. Brad stated it was his intention to either place his inventions in
the public realm where anyone can use it, where it is not patentable,
or else to utilize legal protections so that the inventions can not
either be bought out and removed from the marketplace, or be patented
by some other entity, and likewise be removed from the marketplace,
thereby depriving the public of the potential benefits provided by the
inventions.
3. Brad further stated that, while it is necessary to have money to
get anything accomplished, it is my intention to use whatever I may
invent in such a manner as to be able to sell products and raise funds
necessary for research and development, but still to provide for
anyone's non-commercial use, in similar manner to the "Practical Guide
to the Joe Cell" is both freely available to download and print, but
is also available for purchase on authorized web sites.
4. Brad wound up his mono-log by stating: it is not all about making a
profit, but rather keeping costs low and making alternative and
free-energy affordable and available to everyone. Any HRG member is
of course free to do otherwise if that so suits their objectives,
however, they will do so without the aid of my efforts and research
(where protected by law), as membership in HRG does not confer any
ownership of any product, device or invention, nor does it accrue any
intellectual property rights to inventions of individual members, as
HRG is purely a volunteer, hobbyist group, dedicated to total
disclosure of energy information.
5. Several HRG members stated that their interest was in selling
products and charging for installation of systems, and would use
whatever information became available for their purposes.
6. HRG member David spoke about a special system installed on his
vehicle, which he claimed to increase performance and provide cleaner
burning of fuel. This device plugged into the spark plug outputs of
the distributor, with the plug wires then being attached to the device.

No further HRG business was forthcoming and meeting was adjourned
until next Tuesday's meeting in Najeba's Café.
