Guess. Because this is the first year they've positioned themselves as an EC technology instead of as a competitor to EC technology?

Let me expand on that. As recently as this past spring REFR clearly had SPD positioned as separate from EC (and LC) technologies: "Other smart glass technologies, liquid crystal and electrochromic glass" Message 17617304 But now this PATH report which you so eagerly promote clearly portrays SPD as a form of EC technology: "Another electrochromic technology is called suspended particle display (SPD)." Message 17889282 So SOMETHING has happened in recent weeks that has caused REFR to change gears and promote SPD as an EC technology rather than as an alternative to EC technology. Could admission to the NREL conference be such a motive? In another two months will SPD once again be "not EC"? Will you ever give anything other than snotty non-answers to these question? Inquiring minds want to know.
