The Santilli patent claims an electric arc. It's entirely unclear whether that is the same invention or a different invention. If we're going afield, we can also include Godes, who focuses on quite a different design but claims a number of different "embodiments". Godes first filed way back in 2005. And then we have the issues of US versus EU patents, WTO reciprocity, ... If the PTOs starts granting these patents, these issues will likely be in the courts literally for the rest of our lives.
