    I believe that Steorn’s objective is to create a large enough ‘development’ team legally under the control of Steorn such as the SKDB, who will take the Orbo technology as seen today, with the hope that someone will make the ‘break-through’ that has eluded Steorn so far. If, and when a individual or company discovers this ‘holy grail’ they will be obliged to disclose it to Steorn who in turn will decide how it will be made commercially available, see ‘Commercialisation through the SKDB’. All of the above at no cost to Steorn.

    Excerpt from "Tom Sawyer" by Mark Twain:


    “Hello, old chap, you got to work, hey?”

    Tom wheeled suddenly and said:

    “Why, it’s you, Ben! I warn’t noticing.”

    “Say - I’m going in a -swimming, I am. Don’t you wish you could? But of course you’d druther work - wouldn’t you? Course you would!”

    Tom contemplated the boy a bit, and said:

    “What do you call work?”

    “Why, ain’t that work?”

    Tom resumed his whitewashing, and answered carelessly:

    “Well, maybe it is, and maybe it ain’t. All I know it suits Tom Sawyer.”

    “Oh, come now, you don’t mean to let on that you like it?”

    The brush continued to move.

    “Like it? Well, I don’t see why I oughtn’t to like it. does a boy get a chance to whitewash a fence every day?”

    That put the thing in a new light. Ben stopped nibbling his apple. Tom swept his brush daintily back and forth - stepped back to note the effect - added a touch here and there - criticized the effect again - Ben watching every move and getting more and more interested, more and more absorbed. Presently he said:

    “Say, Tom, let me whitewash a little.”

    Tom Considered, was about to consent; but he altered his mind:

    “No-no-I reckon it wouldn’t hardly do, Ben. You see, Aunt Polly’s awful particular about this fence - right here on the street, you know - but if it was the back fence, I wouldn’t mind, and she wouldn’t. Yes, she’s awful particular about this fence; it’s got to be done very careful; I recon there ain’t one boy in a thousand, maybe two thousand, that can do it the way it’s got to be done.”

    “No-is that so? Oh, come now - lemme try. Only just a little - I’d let you, if you was me, Tom.”

    “Ben, I’d like to, honest injun; but Aunt Polly - well, Jim wanted to do it, but she wouldn’t let him; Sid wanted to do it, and she wouldn’t let Sid. Now, don’t you see how I’ fixed? If you was to tackle this fence and anything was to happen to it --”

    “Oh, shucks, I’ll be just as careful. Now lemme try. Say - I’ll give you the core of my apple.”

    “Well, here - No, Ben, no you don’t. I’m afeared --”

    “I’ll give you all of it!”
