Hawk, my comments on AMSC certainly don't reflect my investment in it. that first. The settlement specifically, even in its brevity, indicates they are both going to submit applications to withdraw any further legal proceedings. I too find it hard to see how a Federal, post-conviction, sentencing can be avoided or affected, but this is not a normal situation. the delayed sentencing after judgement, then the postponement from June, had me wondering already, that force were afoot that shouldn't be. I will not let myself spend any more of my hope or optimistic expectation on this, nor McGahn. not healthy, and i'll admit I slept like shit last night, out of sheer disbelief that after such a long time, being so close, AMSC would consider a resolution like this. I have others to answer too, that I have been explaining the situation too. Without the market depth and diligence on this, this is how I explained it: Your daughter goes on a date. She is raped beaten badly. you spend 7 years trying the case, with broad support from your community and government, and secure a felony conviction. Then on the way to the courthouse to witness the justice, your daughter says it's OK, they made up. The guy paid her $50. Oh, and by the way....they're getting married. That's what it feels like. I can't get past the fact that McGahn is speaking in any conciliatory way with WenYuan Wei, or the corrupt coterie behind Sinovel.

An intellectual property dispute, which in this case has resulted in a criminal law conviction by a federal court, is exactly the kind of case where the federal government should be ready to take action to enforce a court order if necessary. If a court awards damages that exceed the value of assets of the offending company, and the offending company then files bankruptcy, it should be the duty of the federal government to secure some form of compensation, and that means more than token compensation. During several years of work overseas, mainly in southeast Asia, dealing with oriental, culturally based issues, I found that there are ways to reach consensus based resolutions of disagreements. It isn't easy. Diplomacy in these matters requires both art and science – and considerable experience working with others in order to achieve a satisfactory result. One cannot expect good results without these attributes. In particular, if you are dealing with government officials, then some experience in running the government would help immensely. The experience, skills, art and science of diplomacy seem to be lacking at present, but we'll just have to wait and see. Art
