Ed,
Welcome to the thread. There are a few regular posters on the thread and an ever growing crowd of "lurkers" which check in from time to time to see what has been posted. As far as I am concerned, all are welcome and anyone's viewpoint and opinions are valued and are valuable.

I am curious about the report of things being "dead" as reported by a gentleman who works next door to "Luxor". Is he referring to the Pender Street office? If that is the case, I am not surprised as corporate offices which are not related to the sales or manufacturing end of things would not be expected to be very lively. If he was referring to the Langley operation ( which is more "Luxor" than Pender street) or the assembly plant in Sunbury, PA ( which is also more "Luxor" than Pender street) then I most definitely would be sitting up and taking notice. Last I heard, both Langley and Sunbury operations have reasonable activity considering the developmental stage of the company.

In regard to the utilization of pallets, I am not surprised about that either since sales in the first half of the year certainly did not set a blistering pace. The redesigned marketing philosophy and more clearly focused business contacts made in the the third quarter would appear to have eclipsed all other previous efforts combined. IN regard to your acquaintence not being paid, I am very surprised by that and would suggest he recontact Terry regarding the matter.

In regard to having to sell a lot of bridging units to make any money I have my estimates of what is involved and see no problem with it. Like Imal, however, I would have to refer you back to the company for the details of how many units are involved in new construction, retrofits and other applications.

I hope some of this information was of use to you and will look forward to hearing from you again.
