To all the baat naysayers who are bashing it cause of no financials ect..I dont expect to see financials at this point..It;s not why I'm buying at a buck a share. I'm seeing news such as the following....and simply asking myself..isnt this worth a chance for a buck?? The answer for me is sure it is. This companies technology has cars running at 93 mpg...and Ford apparently sees this to be at the very minimum something worth sending there engineers to look at..and after seeing it now want even more testing..personally I think sellers at this point outa really be thinking twice here. Your simply letting the Market makers shake you out of your shares imho. And really you may be in this for the wrong reasons. I buy Lotto tickets with lots less potential than this.. Wednesday February 11, 9:31 am Eastern Time Company Press Release Supercar Succeeds Again 93.7 MPG Average in 3 Runs BURBANK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 11, 1998--B.A.T. International (OTC:BAAT - news) succeeded again in achieving very high fuel efficiency in a field trial of a Geo Metro four-door sedan equipped with a 1.5-liter Yanmar diesel engine modified with B.A.T.'s proprietary Dolphin Pulse Charge technology. Three field trial segments of 50 miles each were run at a constant speed of 40 miles per hour on a two-mile oval track at California Speedway in Fontana, Calif. The individual test results were 91.5, 94.5 and 95 miles per gallon. A chief engineer from Ford Motor Co.
