This news release pertains to Evans Systems, a company that was beginning to have interest in GRNO' units last Spring before the SEC started looking for an easy way to try to draw attention away from some of their then most recent major gaffs(e.g.., GIFS). Looks like EVSI is opening doors to any possible ways of restructuring their company and products. Probably unrelated to GRNO in what they do, but because of past history I thought I'd post it.
