Hartvigsen began his War on the Watermotor on Dec.12, 05, with the help of Wim Klunne, list owner of the Yahoo microhydro group. (microhydropower.net)
It was very simple---Hartvigsen tells the membership that my turbines are "illegal" because, according to him, his partner in Sweden, Peter Ruyter, owns the turgo turbine design we use in our Watermotors, and that I refuse to pay them "royalties".
Wim Klunne knows very well that Hartvigsen has been making this claim for years without proof, as the law requires.
But what he does is to prevent me from making any reply.
Of course the membership does not realize he is doing this. Members demand that I reply to the charges.
In fact, Klunne even assures the membership that he WILL allow me to reply.
Then privately tells me he will not.
Later the membership is assured I WAS allowed to reply.
My apparent non-response is held up to them as proof of guilt. Hartvigsen and Klunne have been doing this for five years.
The following is pretty typical of how the Yahoo microhydro group site has been deliberately and consistently used to destroy our Watermotor project.
This particular Hartvigsen inspired tirade against me goes on until Nov. 7 th 09.
A little over a month after these massages were posted, (Dec. 23, 09) Hartvigsen met with a Patent Attorney, Brian Kunzler, in Salt Lake City. We hired Brian to receive the proof of turgo design ownership Hartvigsen had been telling the Yahoo microhydro group he had.
He was going to prove the old lady in Sweden he has being telling everyone he has collecting funds for really exists. And that he had an exclusive license to produce these turbine runners.
This is the proof of turgo design ownership was what he had been threatening to turn over to the U.S. Customs service since Dec.8, o6, in order to prevent my Watermotors from being imported into the U.S. This is what he what he had o show as proof for my clients he has told that my turbines are illegal.
Big Surprise.
Neither he nor Peter Ruyter had anything whatsoever to present to the lawyer to support their claims. They are simply con men acting with the help of Wim Klunne.
But they have gone right on making these claims, and Wim Klunne is going right on allowing them to do so on the Yahoo microhydro site.

Ron, this is a very distorted view of what has actually transpired. You are the one who dragged this out to the group. You are the one who wouldn't let go of this. For years you have had a standing offer to view the documents first hand in person and meet Mrs. Carlson and confirm all that you've been told.
ReplyDeleteThe fact is if you wanted appropriate technology free to copy you could have come up with your own article instead of making mold imprint copies of a product someone else made. There are plenty of people who have invested the time in a design and tooling. It can be done. You just didn't want to do it, or reward the person who had done it for you (this was not me).
