Murton added, "Successful completion of current discussions regarding strategic alliances should have a very positive impact on BCB." He added, as a note of caution, "While discussions are at an advanced stage with regard to one such alliance, in particular, no assurance can be given, as yet, that they will result in consummation of this transaction."

D. Peter Vanderlee, I thought I had responded to your response to me re "business plan", but I don't see it posted, so I'll try again. Two points: 1) Of course I understand that a business plan is not for public consumption - there's no need to get your back up nor treat all posters to this board as ignorant neophytes. Remember, I am definitely on your side. 2) I didn't really ask for your business plan. What I asked for, was the anticipated cost and timing to implement the new production system to which you referred. As such, you didn't answer my question. I doubt that this information would fall into the category of releasing competitive data, but it certainly would be of interest to investors such as myself who are just trying to get a feel for when production can match demand and therefore hopefully the anticipation of an improved ROI. Regards, JJ
