Bob, the reason I never mentioned that Calstart Note is that my recollection is BLD has their own excellent membrane and have been able to bring their costs on it way down below Dupont's. So they don't buy from them but you are right it is good for fuel cells generally which is good for BLD. Just shows what mass production will do for costs. I just found another site that hasn't been updated recently but holds lots of info for fuel cell "newbies" and certainly many links to other sites. It would be great if it was kept up-to-date though. members.aol.com

Bob, I was just re-reading some posts on Silicon Investor and I came across Sid's posts re BLD. It seems to me he bought puts on Dec. 18th when BLD was around $84 US and said he had picked the top. My guess is he lost all his money since the options have only been economical in the short run with premiums quite outrageous overall and I don't think his options would have been cheap on a relative basis. I also doubt the stock has, in the meantime, dropped below a price at which he could have made money. Any guesses as to how he's done? Sid are you out there? Did you lose all your money? Make money? Buy more puts? Buy the stock? Did Joe Gleason lose his shorts? Just curious.
