J. The other thing I thought about last night was how when I first saw the first demonstrations, neither the mirror nor the EPD made me think of "smart glass." I think calling their web site "SPD-smartglass" is just for the "glass" products. The core foundation of the patents is the "suspended particle device" and all those three words describe it exactly. So I reread the Land patent just to see what we started with and now what we have, and it's an amazing journey. This is an abstract from 1997, outlines the challenge that Bob Saxe faced. SPIE: 1997 Developments in SPD Now I saw the prototype mirror and display where we had gotten it to work. From then to now it's just been refinement between licensees' development of products. So it stands to reason that the products developed by E-Ink and the rest had to rely on 32 years of work by Saxe and the company he formed. It was 1965 when Saxe started his work and formed Research Frontiers. Not sure some of the newer investors quite understand what it is Research Frontiers does. This article will be helpful in understanding Saxe's work. It's never been about glass alone. It's what SPD does when it's on glass that is the "smartglass" product. But this is not a "flattering" article, in fact it lobs the very same criticisms at REFR as are being alleged now by the same individuals who are short the stock. Not a new phenomenon to us. Forbes: As Clear As... That's why I've told people, look at what licensees and their strategic partners are doing with SPD. That's our income. That's our manufacturing. That's why we early investors took the chance that this could actually be commercialized and why we were over the moon 15 years ago. It's the physics part we did. That was the hard part. Same is true for the first products. The film manufacturers and end-product licensees have reached critical mass. We did our work. Now we get paid the royalties from now on out. That was always the plan. And here are the PRODUCTS, proof that throughout all the criticism and attacks. Bob Saxe did what he set out to do. Subject 59325 I think "smartglass" is what threw people. We are the "smart" in smartglass. That's the difference.
