Thanks for the thanks, guys. mike.com, That's one of the problems with the patent search. It doesn't show transfers to third parties (RE: "Wolzien Process"). Also, my analysis was wholly from a gorilla perspective. I did enough, I think to demonstrate that it's not a gorilla. Also, as a rule, I'm not interested in companies that haven't demonstrated an ability to make money. IATV may absolutely be a winner, but they don't qualify as a gorilla, as we use the term here, imo. I look forward to hearing other comments on IATV (perhaps over on that thread). One point I was concerned about--which contributed to my "pump" comment--was the odd compensation package of the senior executives. It seems to make their incentive to get the stock price up in the short term, which may conflict with growing the business over the long term. Best, JS
