This is the message board for a number of 11:11 web sites created by The 11:11 Progress Group. Links to these various sites can be found at the bottom of this page.
Do you mean when you followed the link I placed in the original post you didn't get to the correct page? If so you might try it again. The formatting when I first saw that page has been changed. It used to have a frame and entirely 'too cute' formatting. Now it is back to pretty vanilla coding.
I had another look, and it was an advertisement right in the middle, that made me think what followed was not related, especially since the font went to bold.

Let the future tell the truth, and evaluate each one according to his work and accomplishments. The present is theirs; the future, for which I have really worked, is mine.

When it mattered, Nikola Tesla basically gave away his patents worth of millions to Westinghouse Company. Thanks to that, we now use AC systems all over the world.
He could have been a multimillionaire. Yet, when asked, he elevated the benefit for many over his own benefit.
Tesla gave up control of AC patents worth millions of dollars because he believed that an independent Westinghouse Company was the only way his AC system would be widely adopted. This move by Tesla ensured the future of AC, but left him short of cash to pursue his research in the future.
Fearing ruin, Westinghouse begged Tesla for relief from the royalties Westinghouse agreed to. “Your decision determines the fate of the Westinghouse Company,” he said. Tesla, grateful to the man who had never tried to swindle him, tore up the royalty contract, walking away from millions in royalties that he was already owed and billions that would have accrued in the future. He would have been one of the wealthiest men in the world—a titan of the Gilded Age.
