Maybe you could form an alliance with the restaurant to implement new water distribution schemes based on your patented TECHNOLOGY.

Hey Wang, interesting analogy...

I hadn't thought of it in those terms before, but I will try to use it to make my point sometime in the future.

I wonder if "huge order" implies that someone is actually going to *pay* for the product? Technically speaking, I can "order" water at a restaurant, but I don't pay for the water.

Who would have ever thought that they would be paying for water? You are correct when you say that you can get inferior tap water for free at a restaurant (or a water fountain) but to get water that has been filtered and free of toxins, you must pay a fee. Many restaurants offer bottled water today, at a price. All supermarkets and convenience stores also have it available for purchase. Have you ever paid for water? Was it because of the superior quality and the fact that you knew it was better for you in the long run? Try thinking of this suite of encrypted products the same way and you will possibly begin to get the idea.

Excellent point Wang. Thanks.

The technology is the key...if you understand it.

Enjoy the ride!
