I've heard that a thousand times, and have wondered myself.

Can you find a link to 1 person who has had their world changing patent purchsed by "big oil"? Can they explain what the miracle was?

I'm not saying that it's a world changing patent. I'm just saying that it would help. Can you explain why all of the oil companies are also the leaders in next generation technology? (I'm a Chemical Engineering student and interviewed with several oil companies for a co-op. They are the ones that explained this situation to me).

This site has a bunch of articles talking about different times when companies have bought out patents and not used them. I'd like to see some sources, but I'm betting they didn't fabricate all of this info:

I know of engineers who have told me of this going on. And I'm pretty sure I've seen articles talking about the different patents that Oil Companies own. I'll try and find it.
