You are welcome Burnt ;),.. as are your considered opinions.
Agree, Cardinal moving forward is hardly a blue sky, green light no brainer. Like B. Franklin said "They who would give up essential [financial] liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."

Interesting little Pennsylvania connection for Cardinal here with a bit of a stretch. Franklin frustrated trying to get some tax money out of the Penn family to pay for the services they benefited from. No, not EXIM but the lowly little start up minnow KJ is bravely venturing out with into shark invested and fat cat incumbent waters!.
Not how I would put it:
 "So what are you saying, its ok to sh*t talk about getting current because its not on the main stage? Its ok to spout crap month after month"
But closer to these:
    Loss of Capital: Investments in startups involve a high degree of risk. There is no guarantee that most startups will succeed. Therefore, it is imperative to consider your risk appetite as it is more likely that you may lose all of your invested capital than see a return on capital or a profit. Hence, you should invest such money that you can afford to lose without altering your standard of living.
   Changing Economic Conditions: The success of any investment activity is determined to a certain extent on general economic conditions like, the availability of external credit markets, equity markets, stability in global economies, etc. There can be no assurance that such markets and economic systems will be available as anticipated for an investment in a startup to be successful.
    Future and Past Performance: The past performance of a startup cannot be indicative of a startup’s future results. There can be no assurance that targeted results will be achieved. Each startup’s future statements are based on management's current expectations and assumptions regarding the startup’s business and performance, the economy, etc. As with any projection or forecast, forward-looking statements are inherently susceptible to uncertainty and changes in circumstances. 
    Difficulty in Valuing startup Investments: It is difficult to determine objective values for any startup. In addition to the difficulty of determining the magnitude of the risks applicable to a given startup, there generally will be no readily available market for a startup’s equity securities, and hence, an investor’s investments may be difficult to value.
    Lack of Information for Monitoring and Valuing startups: The investor may not be able to obtain all information it would want regarding a particular startup, on a timely basis or at all. As a result of these difficulties, as well as other uncertainties, an investor may not have accurate/ complete information about a startup’s current value.
   Absence of Liquidity: An investor’s investments will generally be private, illiquid holdings. As such, there may be no readily available liquidity mechanism available for any of the investments. This means that you are likely to see a return only upon the occurrence of a liquidity event or an exit. Therefore, understanding the exit strategy of a startup is important.
   Tax Risks: There are many tax risks relating to investments in startups and they may be complicated. You should consult your tax advisor for information about the tax consequences while investing in a startup.
   Regulatory Risks: The investment may be subject to the certain applicable laws of the investor’s country of residence as well as the country where the relevant start up is registered. The investors are advised to seek adequate legal advice in this relation, prior to making the investment.

CDNL do not seem to bring much to the table when you look at the big picture about supplying water to Africa. Many other companies out there offering complete packages of equipment that is shall we say a little less agricultural looking than when you compare it to what CDNL is offering.
I'd be interested to see this detailed comparison if you have it.

The whole water kiosk business model has been established for quite some time so CDNL is a little late to the party on that, i am sure the actual equipment would be third party
Good!, why reinvent the wheel, git er done Pilgrams get slaughtered etc,..

As for the Hockey links to CDNL and its business success, really ??.
May be coincidence but symbiosis none the less ;) :
Strongest connection is Nashville in my other legit (LIG*) play.
But now we have Benjamin Franklin!, Lord Stanley, the Penn family, purified water in the home, the money flow and investment stimulated (wagers?) around HUGE professional sport events and most importantly KJ back home tweeting again.
    I have been burnt before with aspiring naive start ups but not with Cardinal, out of some sort of obligation I suppose I will hold my free shares right to the hopefully winning end - Go CDNL$.
