Lonnie: The example of Ballard was not to compare AENG with it,whether you are for or against AENG. My reasoning is that with Balalrd as you stated , you have many years of experimentation , patents contracts , hoopla etc. So what is the bottom line or where is the beef ?. If you follow the Ballard SI thread , you will note that 98% of the posts are about the price of the stock , how or when it will go up or down , or just plain hustling. It does not appear that the posters have a clue about the technology , because even the partners of Ballard know for sure ,or can state with any certainty if and when this technology will be marketed. So if a religion is organized or not , it is still religion . Big companies goof all the time , they only difference is that they can afford to so. I have some knowledge of fuels, the most ideal would be hydrogen , for reasons that are obvious. Fuel cells do not have the thrust required for most engine uses and are not economical. This is not saying that they can not work or will not work in the future. What is stated clearly , the technology of fuel cells has a long way to go in order to meet the intended uses. It is also not correct to say that the stock price has a direct correlation to the value of a technology , not matter if it is high or low. The world of technology is not that simple, to enable us to evaluate the worth of an idea by the price of the stock , this is evidently absurd. AENG is on record that it is working on the OX2 at this time , if this is not true than they are lying , if they are working on it and it is true , then the question answers itself. Everyone can decide for themselves

Lonnie, It's advisable that before you make a......he said she said statement, that you check the facts first. You say, "AENG on the other hand does not want to show(according to Greg) the engine to the big 3." Different people have credited me with making this statement (and this may be where the confusion comes from), but I didn't write it. I remember someone making the statement, but it wasn't me. Best of Luck, Greg

You have made some points here that need to be clarified. You make the statement that AENG is not talking with the largest car manufacturers. Now we should add to that it is your opinion. I am willing to state they are talking with them. I would add that it is not only with Big Three. That is my opinion. Which of us is right? We both can only give opinions on this. From what I have heard I believe I am right. But again I state it only as my opinion. You need to clarify your statements also. If Greg is your only source on this then I don't think it is wise to assert that it is a fact. AENG has been very quiet as of late for good reason. I firmly believe that when we all hear what has been taking place within the company we will be very pleased. That is if you are long and not short the stock. In my opinion I believe things are going exceptionally well. You look at the stock as having fallen from the 20's to 10. I look at as a stock that has risen from 1 to 10. I also disagree with your assessment of the length of time to bring the OX2 to market. I believe it is just about ready to come to market now. Having had the opportunity to talk with Mr. Shelby I believe for autos we will see an engine in a vehicle and running in less than a year. As for the many other applications which will be much larger in total then the auto industry, expect it to happen even sooner. These are my opinions and you have yours. Post them as such.
