Exactly. After finding out that a PCT filing in a reasonable number of
countries of the planet costs about $ 50,000, the creator contacted a
financial adviser and decided to disclose it all in "Research
Disclosure" (http://www.researchdisclosure.com/). That costs only $ 120
a page and prevents anybody else from taking a patent on it in the
future. Very clever! Intelligent design and business can go hand in hand...

Cheers,

Jan
