My bad. Had the line in there but deleted it because my memory is a bit fuzzy on it being in there.

I have no idea why I need to show that the motive for the telephone was not profit. I've never made any claims that it wasn't and don't see what relevance that has with anything. Bell doesn't have a monopoly now, but while they did, consumers got the shaft.
