I doubt if FORD will acknowledge the offer, and I can understand that. I would imagine that the "technology" race between the BIG is like the SKUNK works in the military. (Where are those flying saucers???) TOP SECRET. It may also be awhile before FORD acknowledges genuine interest. I think it was a FORD spokesman (if you can believe anyone anymore) in reference to BAAT, saying that there were plenty of "prototype cars" out that get over 100mpg. its strange if they did say such, why they wanted to down play, instead of just saying they did not know enough about BAAT to make a statement. I don't think FORD has loose cannons giving interviews. If the engine loan is correct and if the statement is correct, it may be a case of "media control". Not wanting to let the cat out of the bag until FORD has plenty of opportunity to take a look. But if the BAAT tech is good, and one buys it, then I can't see any other option but all of them getting it. And I don't think any of them will be in a position to "buy" the technology, only for themselves. Its hard to separate the crap from the truth. I'm glad BAAT has decided to "clam up" for awhile. I don't think we'll be gettin any, "BAAT said this and BAAT said that". AS for the naysayers. I think if enough negative posts showed up at any stock site, they would have enough effect and put enough doubts on a companies future that people will change their mind in buying it. Whether you're talking about IBM, Microsoft, AOL, or BAAT. In all stocks you have to take a chance. By the time you have all the information on a companies future, its too late to get in and make good. Everyone has to weight the limited facts on BAAT and decide for themselves if it is worth the risk.

Ron Holland told me that BAT would receive two Ford engines for modification and testing. This statement was made on Feb. 10 at the California Speedway. Also, Jim Heffel of UC Riverside has confirmed this statement. I found two posts on the Yahoo thread relating to this confirmation. An investor will soon find himself questioning everything he knows if he reads enough of the distorted imaginings of some of the BB posters. So what can I make of Ron Holland's statements at the test? Well, we were speaking face to face, and Mr. Holland didn't appear evasive to me. If anything, he was very forthcoming in revealing information that he didn't have to share with us. He didn't have to say anything about the relationship of pulse jet engines to Dolphin technology. He didn't have to say anything about tire inflation pressures. He didn't have to say anything about camshaft acceleration ramps or diesel injector racks or piston modifications. But he did. And I am inclined to believe him. And I caution investors not to be swayed very far from their own beliefs by anonymous posters who claim to know what the future holds for BAT. I actually found a post on the AOL BB that announced that BAT would not open for trading last Tuesday. So just take rumors for what they are worth. All of this will be resolved over a period of time, and those who expect to get rich overnight will take their hype elsewhere.
