TO: Joel Welty
I need to know if you are still in, or out. Haven't heard from you in weeks.
Your bio you furnished mentioned a history in non-profits (NGOs).
We need to incorporate a non-profit. There are some patented technologies which
I would like to avail myself of. That requires currency, medium of exchange.
What I have to exchange is equally valuable technology, which is not yet
patented. The idea is exchange of reciprical use rights. From my side I need to
patent the ideas before I actually have any thing to exchange, as unpatented
ideas can just be taken and used without proffering anything back. The
non-profit is needed to be the repository of the patents, recipient of
donations, and licensor of uses.

If you look at the data table I have compiled on the webpage URL above, you
will see the value of concrete posts to replace wood and/or steel consttruction
members. There is other data on pages linked from that page, which coupled
together make patentable inventions. The fact that they can reduce building
construction materials costs, and reduce labor costs, and make more ecologicaly
benign structures which are sturdier and longer lasting, means the ideas have
value. Trade value for use of incorporated patents, and trade value for
financing to establish actual demonstration neighborhoods.
As you might know, currently there are 2,500,000 people driven homeless in
China, India, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Nepal. So far 2003 has had
greater flooding area than any two years since records have been kept. China
measures its disasters by how many people killed, so the current flooding is
rated less than 1991 or 1998 where 5,000 and 4,000 respectively perished. But
the area of flooding is greater this year, where a full third of the nations
reservoirs are threatened, and if SARS gets into the refugee camps...
As you can see by my data table on concrete posts, it takes less than two sacks
of cement to hold up 160 tons of 6th floor roof, and 3.3 sacks to hold up the
floor walls and roof, of a 40 by 40 by 3 meter top story of the building. This
4,800 cubic meters of housing space, or 8 US-style 2,000 square foot homes.
Go to: http://pages.sbcglobal.net/fwehman/index.html and see their
high-pressure hydrolic compressed earth brick machines.
http://pages.sbcglobal.net/fwehman/MachineSpecs.html
This page shows bricks suitable for high production, high volume construction
of homes, subdivisions, and commercial installations. It is a fully
self-contained machine which can be used anywhere in the world.
Block Production Rate: 960 blocks/hr normal (nominal) production set at AECT
factory
Block Sizes: Variable, depending on clients needs, typical block size is
normally 10 x 14 x 3.5 inches (25.4 cm. x 35.6 cm. x 8.89 cm.); interior wall
blocks typically 7 x 14 x 3.5 inches (17.8 cm x 35.6 cm x 8.89 cm) Machine
makes block for walls of 7, 10, or 14 inch thickness or combinations thereof
depending on architectural effects desired.
This is patented technology. I need them to modify this machine for me, to
produce bricks of a new design. The new design moulds would be patented. The
modified bricks make stronger walls, go up faster than conventional, are easier
to align, and most importantly function in concert to the concrete posts for an
earthquake-resistant building.
I can't talk to them until my modification is patented. Hell, I can't even talk
to YOU about it yet, because you haven't signed a non-disclosure or made any
commitment.

The gas-pressure water pumps should be patented, again as a trade good to have
something to give in exchange for something to get, even if the item gotten is
only money.
http://www.ecosyn.us/ecocity/Palaces/Octet/Octet_Truss_01.html
Here's another item which Buckminster Fuller patented (patent expired), which
can be incorporated into a new product, which can then be patented anew.
We live in a capitalistic matrix. We have to function according to set
parameters, just as our material creations have to. You faced constraints
trying to get financing for your co-housing project. I am into problem-solving.
If the problem is "functioning in a capitalistic matrix", them patents and a
non-profit NGO may be the solution. Since the current US scene has so many
obstacles to anything different, I see globalization as the answer. There are
2.5 million new homeless who would be happy to get out of a Red Cross muddy
tent ASAP.
You and your wife can be the founding directors and officers: one of you
President and Secretary, the other one VP and Treasurer. The sost of state
incorporation iss trivial in California, and likely modest in Michigan. Federal
IRS 501(c)(3) status requires a $500 fee, but allows 18 months to pay it
(basicallly they figure if your corporation cannot raise a dollar a day, get
lost!).
I have an offer from a donor to pay that fee when the time comes, so that is
not an obstacle.
The big issue of the moment is: are you in, or out?
From my part, I am not going to donate patents unless the non-profit charter
has corruption-proof clauses which can never be amended. I have been through
the hostile take-over of the NGOs before. I have written up all the paperwork
for an NGO in Washington which became incorporated, and it is no big deal. I
could look up the laws in MI, but this is your area of expertise, and I have a
plate full in front of me which can't be delegated away.
IF you are IN, I need also your comments on all of the pages. The purpose of
this exercise is two-fold: (1) to get another outside perspective on how much I
am making clear, and (2) to get more samples of your thought processes. It's
hard to trust people I hardly know, and I would appreciate deeper insights into
the members of this so-called "working group". Since you self-selected yourself
as a subscriber to this e-list, I must have expressed something which you
perceived as common ground. You have to tell me what that was.
Tomorrow I will upload a new page showing NEW CITIES of 120,000, 150,000, and
1,000,000 people. They range in size from 4 square kilometers (2.54 square
miles) to 32 km2 (12.5 mi2). You will see parks within two blocks of every
residence and other visible amenities absent from out eco-hostile current
culture.
