Scott, ENBC info - I believe both companies will fit nicely in this much needed area of fuel cleanup. In regards to ENBC only producing 4 barrels of clean fuel per day and negative revenue....please read the latest press release on ENBC today. - ENBC signed their first Commercial agreement today for a 5,000 barrel per day Unit with Petro. - Simple math tells us that this will be a GUARANTEED $2M per year recurring revenue! And this is only the FIRST unit! - There are several other companies the are actively negotiating with...and will sign within the next 6 months. Thats about it for now. Both companies have a good story. My gut feeling (and I could be wrong).....companies like ENBC and RNTK will be the next "Microsoft and Intel" ( in terms of their potential stock price and solution niche). Good Luck to all. Eagle Eye
