Quoting from the article:

"A lot of people think technology transfer is like a Rube Goldberg machine
where you take technology and stick it in one side, and then the stuff just
pops
out in the product group on the other side," Schofield said. "In reality,
technology transfer is a far more organic process."

Read the last sentence carefully and a remember, as the Book of Reminders says:
"It is said: "Manure happens."  This is not so. Manure is the result of a
natural process. We all create manure..." And also remember that Fertilizer is
manufactured... or published by billion dollar corporations... Just think:
without all of the fertilizer they've sold Linux would never have become a
viable option...
