You guys posting will have to excuse my skepticism about this company. I've been looking at it since I discovered it. When I contacted Larry McIntire who had the write up on their web & had been with this company a looong time as an investor he was pretty disapointed. He bought his shares when he was 39, hes now about 50. I may be not exact about the dates since I don't want to bother to go back & find the dates, but the point is what is important. He' a bit tired of waiting for the promises. So, as this, as an introduction to my query to all of you, this is what I don't understand: If GPGI has the goods, and is as promising as it has been touted: WHY don't they get with it, get production up & make it the bonanza it should be? My reaction: They don't have it. Because, if you or I were in their position, I would present my case to financiers, venture capitalists, whatever it would take to get this project off the ground & make some big bucks. So my question is other than the diddling answers, why not? Is it just a hobby with them? Hey, if I (or you) have a good thing, wouldn't we want to make a big go of it? Or am I making too much sense? I can find financing for bubbless bubble gum, if there's money to be made! What's their problem if all is good? Tell me, I would really like to know. TOM
