Che makes a cogent point. The year long test was far more that an attempt to extract money from IH, It was an attempt to verify a commercial product and the attempt failed at least in Rossi's estimation. This attempt at commercial applicability was why the test was so convoluted, inappropriate to the spec, and needlessly involved. Rossi has a good idea about what will work in the marketplace and his E-Cat would fall short of Rossi's expectations as Rossi saw it.
The lawsuit was Rossi's method of punishing IH for messing with his IP and using Rossi in a game to extract money from others. Rossi had to get out from under IH who wanted to control Rossi. In the art of the deal, you take an extreme position and then when you get what you want in negotiations, then you settle. Rossi frightened IH with bankruptcy until he wore IH down enough to give Rossi what he really wanted, There was no science or fair play in this maneuver for Rossi. The test was power, lawyers and tactics on power, other lawyers and countertactics. A good bisiness man never plays fair in getting what he wants, truth seldom plays a part in the game, It is shrewd cunning that is the trait that wins the day in court.
