Hunter: Every patent expires. I believe that Dr. Stamm's original broadly written GPR patent will expire within a year or two. His strategy makes perfect sense. He possesses proprietary information that would reveal his process to others who could then duplicate and market it. I have reviewed the general information provided by the patent office. What is in the public domain is the overal GPR patent, his differential phase shift keying receiver, and the Vadnais radar. What is not in the public domain is precisely how Dr. Stamm identifies the signature signals; nor how he attains the resolution that he does; nor what kind of software he uses to make it all possible. I bet we never learn. As an MBA, you are aware of reverse engineering. US companies have learned how to do this from the Japanes and are becoming very good at it. This is probably Dr. Stamm's primary concern. You can't reverse engineer a proces that is missing half of its specifications. marty

Hunter, To your latter question, " Why would Stamm care if he has a patent on the technology?" Some people are just not born blabber mouths. IMO, Dr. Stamm's approach is the correct one for achieving success. "Let the results speak for themselves". Your former question addresses technical analysis. I'm not aware that you use TA for penny stocks, but if you do, please consider the following. IMO, I considered yesterday's action a volume reversal which carried through this morning. Yesterday's volume of over 2 million shares was way above average. Today the bid is up .75 cents, not what you indicated. Ten cents is the high trade of the day so far. Volume is approximately 600k, again over the average. At times, VOLUME PRECEDES PRICE. I would be much more concerned about this rally if the price were shooting through the roof in greater percentage terms. The foundation of a sustainable rally requires above average volume and price increases that are reasonably contained. This creates the smooth-line type of rally that establishes trends, not those that are choppy in nature and directionless. As stated on a previous post, the DBC chart indicates the 200-day moving average at about 1/8. That's what I'm keeping an eye on, and I find the current volume pattern that you mentioned very interesting too. Marty- Thanks for posting the Engo AOL information. As always, the fundamental information you have been providing is crucial in determining NAMX's future, and IMO, at this stage of NAMX's development, much more important than the TA aspect.
