How many years of crapola can fit into the Global Bowl before it exceeds the destination sewer system's capacity?
Guess each of us shareholders and hareholders will just have to pick up our individual load and take it home.
ragingbull.lycos.com ... from the Texxon website... "On February 22, 2001, the Company was granted a perpetual license to use a proven method of precious metal extraction that yields approximately eight (8) ounces of 99% pure platinum metal from mineralized water controlled by Texxon.
The precious metal extraction process is the result of over 10 years research and development by the inventor and owner of the process, Russell Twiford." and... "On October 18, 2001, the Company (Texxon) consulted a patent attorney to file a provisional patent for the process."
... it's my understanding that Twiford worked/consulted for GPGI for a number of years on this same technology.
Am I supposed to believe that GPGI didn't patent the process or try to protect/lockup the technology that was supposed to generate billions of dollars of revenue for them?

So GPGI's process is a higher cost, less successful process?
That doesn't sound like good news for GPGI's investors.
... it's in GPGI's best interest to keep the "secret sauce" as a trade secret. Trade secrets by definition are supposed to protect confidential information. Once a trade secret is disclosed to a third party it loses it's proprietary status.
So unless GPGI's management are complete morons they had Twiford sign a non-disclosure agreement.
This would prevent Twiford from giving Texxon any information about the process, even if he has improved it. Sounds to me that GPGI should be revving up their lawyers.

... Twifford has been working on this recovery process for 10+ years. Several years ago GPGI supported Twifford in continuing to work and perfect the process. I assume that this earned them the right to USE the process, but not to OWN the process.
More recently, USPS, Galleon and TEXXON have also contributed to Twiffords's work, again, I assume, to earn the rights to use the process. TEXXON is a somewhat different case because Twifford is on the management team there and I'm not sure how the sharing might go.
Anyway, I believe the above companies all have the rights to use the process (with appropriate restrictions on sharing), but they do not own the process - it still belongs to Twifford.
Let me know if others also see it this way or if you know of any different arrangements between the parties. Alvie

Are all mining company management teams complete morons?
... totally insane.
... GPGI didn't do this, they are idiots and don't deserve my investment dollars. If USPS, Galleon and Texxon didn't do this, they are idiots and don't deserve my investment dollars.
Has anyone seen any licensing or non-disclosure agreements between Twiford and any of these companies?
If there aren't any, you can kiss that trade secret status goodbye.

... if GPGI went to Twifford looking for a recovery process, he would be in the drivers seat, not them.

... Twiford had already developed the recovery process back in 1998, then why didn't GPGI implement it at that point?
Based upon GPGI's news releases it appears as if they bounced all over the place in trying different recovery processes.
Do you know if Twiford has any licensing/contractual agreements with any of the following companies?
PGM Corporation Texxon Galleon USPS GPGI
IMO, without knowing each company's licensing rights to his recovery process, you'd have to be crazy to invest in any of them. |
