Lee S is the president and owner of IT Millwrights, so this contract was just a financial construct.

Since Lee left POET 31.10.2014 as vice president of technology (the one who brought most of the findings of our good Dr. to paper) he literally disappeared from the scene. Try to google if you can find any hint, any info about him since then. Quite difficult nowadays especialy when working in IT, semiconductor or science. Who knows the internet at least a little can guess what happened.

So some say that if he is still alife, he could be in a training /R&D camp together with 30-40 engineers. There is more then one area 51 on earth. I hope that one day we will read the story.
