The mystery lingers on, caught between his desperate last words, “they poisoned me”, and the official diagnosis of a natural death, intertwined with the hushed silence that still surrounds this self-proclaimed inventor of a revolutionary water-fuel cell system - as he called it - that could have replaced conventional fossil fuels, an idea that has not yet been forgotten.
