It is very difficult to dispute other's OPINION'S. Again, I attempted to get other's opinion's with my first post. But they are only OPINION'S, not FACTS. In reference to other cuts' taken at me today, I guess that if an institutional investor is in, the stock must be good. After all, they never made a mistake either. YEP! Wouldn't the same information they have be available to us? So they know more than you or me? Now, try this question. If this is such a SUPERIOR opportunity, and is the next MSFT, wouldn't the intrinsic value be substantially higher than 7 and some fraction dollars. You can't say the exposure isn't there, so where are the big dogs. My OPINION is they are waiting for a product to appear. How much is invested in REFR by GE?? They surely know a heck of a lot more than any of us. If everything was in order couldn't and wouldn't they want to buy the entire company or at least a substantial position...with pocket change? I see no conflict of interest in such a transaction. Your responses would be appreciated. GARY

Larry, Wanted to tell you how much I appreciate your post about MSC opinion on SPD. It's another example of an outside independent source confirming the technology as I mentioned in a post to Gary. I think there are enough outside sources to dispel the innuendo of a REFR scam or hype or whatever the negative inference is. I can see why you added to your position. You may have bet on an opinion, but it was clearly an informed opinion from a scientific type in a position to judge the merit of SPD. You don't ask an accountant to do brain surgery. That's why I prefer listening to an independent scientist about the potential for SPD. Equally impressive in your post is a phone number of the person you talked to MSC. This indicates there is someone there who can support your hearsay evidence. Your post is another positive fact that helps the bullish case. Thanks again. PM
