Hi Bud; Either it's wishful thinking on their part, particularly if they are short the stock, or they don't know what they are talking about! Of course it works, and all that is, and has been taking place this last couple of months is getting it into the best condition possible for the market. Nothing ever made by man is perfect, but we engineers try to make it as good as we possibly can!! That takes time, effort and money. And having to put up with criticisms of others. Cheers, Don

I have been reading the posts on this thread and spending time doing my background research on the science and scientists behind LUMM. The technology is new to me. I have been a student of broadband technology for some time, but don't feel like I have a grip on all the obsticles left to overcome before the technology is ready for commercial rollout. I have some questions What are the technical/financial barriers to other entering this technology. I noticed that the new CFO has worked with soft gel technology prior to joining LUMM. There was a post that no one else is doing what LUMM is. Is this factual? If the process is so cheap and easy why will it take so long to ramp production? The Molex partnership...what is the benefit to LUMM other than the infusion of capital. The Cisco technical advisor on the board....how did he happen to be invited. JDSU and SDLI// are they developing similar technologies? I guess what I am trying to get a handle on is what are the risks to investors and what are the potentials rewards of this technology. It seems clear that LUMM has the lead but given the run the stock has had what is its current value given the forecasts for revenue and the time delay before this technology is ready for mass production? Thanks in advance. Norden
