Charles,

I feel I need to pipe in here. I understand your feelings about R&D being done in China, as well as your feelings about the gov't there.

However, at the root of it, it makes sense that the Chinese would be more appreciative of alternative energy technology than here in the US, with our established infrastructure. It is difficult to have folks thinking out of the box when they've become comfortable with their current way of doing things. The chinese have the advantage of being able to do things just a bit differently.

And as for the Chinese, I think we need to differentiate between national politics and ideology, and the people themselves. While I'm not a fan of Maoism/marxism, I'm not an enemy of the Chinese people and they're desire to improve their standard of living.

And considering the relative lack of political chaos in HK, and the special economic zones in Quondong province and elsewhere, I think that the Chinese octagenarians fully realize they need to invigorate their economy. But for them it is a matter of how much and how fast.

The world is a marketplace of ideas and inventions. If the Chinese choose to exploit GRNO's technology, more power to them. It certainly isn't comparable to supercomputers or nuclear technology.

And besides, the end goal of this company is to become valuable enough for sale down the road. A close working relationship with the Chinese market certainly should add value.

So, in sum, I don't care if it is the "Red Chinese". What I care about is that the technology gets put into operation. After all, that's why I invested in this company in the first place.

Back to my box...

Regards,

Ron

China learns the lessons that tops-down socialist demands of a central bureaucracy on collectivist agriculture do not lend themselves well to ecological solutions. The old Soviet Union also is an ecological disaster zone.

I wish the rest of the world would also be able to learn that. Planting grass or trees or whatever works is better than desertification. That is true for the local environment as well as for global warming.

I hope China really wants to clean up their waste oil and that no local bureaucrat will be able to play dog-in-the-manger as we have seen in Charleston, Turkey, and who knows where else.
