Perhaps your standard disclaimer should include the statement "I may knowingly repost discredited and/or misleading information if it bolsters my 'cause."
While it appears you accept the notion that Ballard lost money(which beats me), you fail to apologize for your post indicating otherwise. You've sold DCHT at a loss and credit others for both your decision to buy and to sell. You are responsible even if you fail to accept it. You are behaving in a slippery fashion around here IMHO. It is not helpful.
"...last time I looked it(Ballard) had $4440 Millions in the kitty. When it runs out, it's got some REAL STRATEGIC PARTNERS, not just another Company that manufactures sensors on a subcontract basis."
Quite a twist, Francois. Allied Signal signed a "marketing alliance" with DCHT and intends to integrate DCHT sensors into it's own products, but that surely couldn't be indicative of a REAL STRATEGIC PARTNER now, could it? That Westinghouse installed DCHT sensors into a nuke plant probably indicates DCHT sensors have nothing going for them. It seems Ballard itself has spent some of it's apparent(???) losses on procuring DCHT sensors.
DCHT just introduced a PEM Fuel Cell of it's own. Can they sell any? You don't know. But DCHT indicates that they CAN build them for sale this year.
Quoting David Haberman, co-founder, Vice-President, and Chairman of DCHT- "There are companies that have no sales that say they are in the fuel cell business. We will be showing people that we have fuel cells now." And, "We are not just R&D. We are producing and shipping(sensors- Dan)."
This company has marketed technology acquired from Govt. funded National Laboratories- to marketers, as is it's stated plan. "We like to take the approach of being the enabling technology for other people's integration using their marketing expertise." -Haberman. Westinghouse sold the sensor to Russia. Allied Signal is to sell the sensor in products sold to Government(and builds chips for DCHT). Free Wing intends to sell to Government. The sensor and fuel cell technologies themselves were government funded. Mind you- too much government is one of my biggest concerns in life. But, at this juncture, if your reading of the tea leaves tells you that doom is impending for DCHT, so be it. You're inability to understand why "intelligent people" don't sell befuddles me- they just see a glass half full of good stuff, that's all. |
