Battery, Solar news didn't come across as up beat. The auto industries are not giving volume orders yet. The positive electrodes production was halted for expansion. Royalties down on consumer batteries.

1. Lower prices.

2. last year payment were more because of back royalty.

3. Volume was up on total being sold. (Time Mag. article 780 million)

Motorcyle test in Honda (Japan) and (Italy manf.) very good results waiting for companies to say yes start production. (This is the way iI understood this.

ECD is trying to get production up to bring down cost of batteries.
Fred ask about EV batterys maybe he can comet later on his thoughts.

The Mir spaceship using ECDs photovoltaics shows the solar panels are great for space. Cannon, ECD partner in United Solar, is focus on Japans market right now. I would like to let someone else comet on the solar like to hear more at meeting.

Will post as soon as I can heal enough.
