"Only time will tell, notwithstanding your drivel." So you lost money and you cling to your dream. How sad. Its a very human failing. You must learn to leave your dead behind you. Time will indeed tell. I think I warned that the release would be less than great. For me to tell you I doubt even that release and see gaping holes in the company game still, I know you cannot accept. But don't take your misfortune out on me. I am not "dead wrong" sir. I was dead right. Management knows it. The market knows it. And in time so will you. I full well realize that I do not gain any credibilty with anyone. Those who believed before hand still do and those who didn't, still rationalize. There is something I know that I have tried to convey to you and others here. That is the engineering state of the current technology. What it can do and what it cannot. And whether or not you can pry little .10 micron clusters of Pt from silicate matrices at any cost. It's an energy equation. You have to break the silicate bond. Silicates hold the crust together. If they were not terribly tough and insoluble in many acids there would be no crust. It would be a sea of mush. You would need hipwaders to walk to work. Sure you can take metal from silicates. If the metal is there. As a matter of fact they do it all the time. But as I pointed out they do not do it with hemimorphite when its 17% zinc. And that is not micro fine either. So you have to have scads of mineral. Try this. Take a piece of quartz. Put it in a bath of 12 molar hydrochloric, sulfuric, bromic, and nitric acids. Boil it in a fume hood at 100 degrees Celsius for 8 hours. Tell me what you have left. Distressing isn't it? So how are you gonna break this stuff down cheap? As a matter of fact the soviets get aluminum out of silicates. But that is at 5% metal. And aluminum is pretty valuable. The above is not drivel. Its just stuff you are 20 years behind me on and I think you will have to not only learn that stuff but lots more about its ramifications, and when you have studied that deeply, go meet a lot more people in the industry and in other places and study the scams that were out there and how they were done. They were surprisingly technical and quite carefully planned. And knowing 175% more than you will ever know about that angle my fine feathered friend I will leave you comfortable in your not so blissful and willful ignorance. Turn toward the light if you can. It may hurt your eyes but it is best. I may be cruel here a bit, but I submit that to be kind I would not do any good at all. I know my words will burn deep and that is exactly what they intend to do. When the patient is healed the pain will cease and you will be grateful to the surgeon. Anon.
