Bill, to answer your question, no, the subject of the legality of share selling wasn't broached by me to Wolf. I didn't give it a thought at the time.
I know everyone here would like to hear from the source (Wolf), what precipitated his visit to the pilot plant and any impressions that he might have come away with as a result of that meeting. Wolf has indicated to me that he doesn't mind my passing the information on to everyone and, I'm sure management is watching closely to see what his impressions were as well. He has indicated, however, that he is much too busy to do the posting himself. My conversation with Wolf took place this morning.
As Hasher had indicated, Wolf had been trying for some time to arrange a visit to the plant through Joey. That never came to pass for a variety of reasons. Just recently, however, Joey suggested Wolf contact Walter to discuss the issue. After a couple of phone calls and some bona fide proof of shareholdership, the meeting was called by Mr. Walter for this past Saturday.
All told, Wolf was pleasantly impressed with the plant, the overall neatness of the operation and the fact that they are apparently producing plates with some degree of speed and consistency. However, plates are not batteries. The intent is to get those plates to a manufacturer (Kung Long?) who will produce the batteries and (here we go again) -- test them. Now, apparently the deep cycling has pretty-much already been performed by Joey (603 cycles). What other testing needs to be done would be pertinent to the battery manufacturer.
Wolf also sat down and had a face-to-face with Walter and came away with a number of impressions, mostly positive. He thinks the company is legit, management is legit, knowledgeable and trying their utmost to make this thing happen. He feels that should one or two small deals take place, the stock would respond nicely. If one or two LARGE deals happen, the stock would take off -- upwards of $10. BUT, everything is predicated on the plates being placed into a battery and satisfactorily tested AND the deals or alliances taking place.
There are a handful of posters here whom I have great respect for -- Wolf is at the head of that list. He's about as straight a shooter as one will ever meet. If Wolf says Walter is OK, then that's it, end of conversation. That having been said, should anything I've ever said about the man (Walter) been construed as disrespectful, my apologies. Years of waiting, hoping, coupled with periods of black silence can jaundice anyone, certainly myself included.
That's about all I know, folks. If there's anything that was passed onto Wolf that was to be confidential, this is the way it remains. He is a man of his word.
OT -- What an uplifting story about those two boys that were missing for four years being found alive. Hope they throw the abductor into the clink so far they have to feed him with a slingshot.
Like Jimmy Swaggart, does his dirt in someone else's back yard then preaches purity.
Well, we ARE coming up on the PWTC Spring Frolic, you know. If history repeats itself.......
You planning that trip out to the plant any time soon, Spike?
dk -- congrats on your Seahawk win. Damnedest finish I've ever seen.
To the best of my understanding, yes, the float is 10 mil, with roughly half of that being privately held.
Hope none of the firefighters in my community have as unprofessional a posture as certain that post here and elsewhere.

Don, No, I think Spike would be a bit disappointed. I mean, usually the criticism directed at him is sans name-calling. We must rise above, you know.
Another blast from the past -- Raging Bull, PWTC, Post No. 42688:

There seems to be a common thread with these posts, can't quite put my finger on it. In any event, someone I know might want to consider hooking up with Mel Gibson the next time he goes in for "re-hab". There's a definite problem here. It might even be affecting the stock price, IMO.
Hasher, when is that next trip out to the plant planned?
I certainly do hope you can get some pics -- 'specially of the completed product, or the incomplete product, or maybe of several dozen plates being readied for the completed product?
Took a trip down memory lane over on RB. Some fairly revealing stuff over there. Seems they have their e-Yiorgos while we have our e-Donnie..........
I submit the following for your discriminating taste, gentle readers....

Otter, I don't believe anyone asserted that they ARE hiding something. There has to be something to hide first. No, one of the board intelligencia indicated that to go there unannounced was foolhardy. If that foolhardy visit had not been made, think about all the swell posts that wouldn't have been drafted. lol
LOL -- Primo post, Donnie. A real 9.5 on the smarm meter. Doesn't get much better than that one.
BTW, why should a shareholder have to "announce" a visit to their company?
Again, nice post. Will have to drag that one out from time-to-time. LOL
As one might recall, "-ss" was enough to have me severed as moderator. Pretty egregious stuff, eh?
You just expose yourself more and more with each passing post.
Waiting for the apology here. If you want one from me, cut and paste the offensive remark, I'll take it under advisement.
Answer me this. How is it that when someone takes it upon themselves to question the "company" or its crack management, you and the other one consider it your duty not to defend your blessed company, but attack the attacker? No one is blaming either of you of anything, but you seem to take those posts as a personal offense. Why? Hasher goes out to the site and reports what he sees. As a result, "management" answers the call with fresh pictures. Had Hasher not done what he did, the pics would still be a figment of your imagination. Soooooo, Walter commissions his denizens to get them taken and they are produced. The result? You and the other one impugn the integrity of the catalyst who brought the whole circumstance to fruition.
Also answer me, if you can, how your B-----d remark escaped the censor's swift sword. Oh, I forgot -- YOU are one of the censors. Integrity is as integrity does.
Have a nice day and ......let me be the first.........have a very Happy New Year.
"You just keep getting smarmier and smarmier, Donnie." Thought there might be some hope for you when you broke from the ranks and actually said a no-no on the board. You remember that one, don't you, Loggie? Donnie said a no-no and Loggie let it pass. Don't you just love it when there's two sets of rules in place?
There, I already put the cut-and-paste that you're bound to use in quotes for you. And, if it wasn't YOU who did the job on Hasher, I've got money says you know who it was.
"Personal butt-wiper". Hmmm, sounds like some of your old Raging Bull dialogue. I believe that if you were referring to yours truly, that would be a TOSable offense. In any event, the statement should certainly have been beneath any mature individual's sense of right and wrong. When you reach that level, I'll accept your apology. That should take place about the same time this Piece of Steaming Excrement reaches a dime.
"So thank "Pete" for what? All his efforts to cast doubt over the Company? Funny. Read some of his comments. As for "sprucing the place up", oh yes, I'm sure they went out rented some equipment for a day to take pics. Ha, ha, ha!"
What Company?
If someone had just answered the rap on the door, this entire thread would be moot.
Again, you should thank Pete for his efforts on YOUR behalf as well as the others here who appreciate them.
Incidentally, got any ideas as to who might have messed with his Ihub information? Nah, didn't think you would.
I reiterate -- do you think there would be new pictures WITHOUT that report having been made?
Let me ask you -- do you think for one freaking moment that there would be new pictures on the website if it weren't for Hasher's visit? Before you two get too high and mighty, you might want to thank Pete for his efforts. All it took was one visit to the hallowed plant and an honest report as to what he saw and -- voila -- some fresh pictures. You don't suppose they spruced the place up a bit prior to taking those photo's do you?
Thanks for the effort on everyone's behalf, Hash. I think about everyone here appreciates it.
Given your near proximity to the plant, I would think that orchestrating a guided tour would be in the best interests of company management, fershur. Word of your visit will, I'm sure, get back to our crack management team should greet your second visit with open arms. Don't forget to check the "loo" whilst you're there.
Keep up the good work with your "man on the street" reports. Oh, that was Louie Nye, wasn't it?
And to you and everyone else here, Preamp, a very Merry Christmas (PWTC notwithstanding) and a prosperous New Year.

I spoke with Hasher late yesterday. He had just visited the "pilot plant" address. Although the lights were on, there was no response to his knocking or ringing the bell. He WAS, however, able to peek in the window and glean some information that I will let him share with us whenever he has a chance.
I wonder if Sentry has signed up any more hardware stores.
I wonder if our presidents and sundry vice-presidents are partaking in the annual Festival of the Christmas Bonus.
OT -- Thanks for that, Otter. Someday............
All joking aside -- I would be VERY interested if someone (Hasher) were to mosey on over to the "pilot plant" and put an eyeball on as to what, if anything is happening. This thing has entered an entire new time/space continuum of incredibility.
Betcha there's nobody eager to kiss Walter's ring these days.
Methinks it's probably high time that the LOI is coming to fruition? Here's a-hopin'.
goodon, today might be your birthday and all, but you've grasped on a point that several of us have been pondering for, oh, over a year or so now.
Having passed the Bar doesn't necessarily prove competence in the business arena.
Yep, gonna enter another tax season where my tax guy akses me "whatever happened to that battery company that was gonna make you rich?" I don't know whether I should punch him in the face or find a new guy. lol.
Don, you ARE aware that you made a puntable no-no. Yes? Not that there's anything wrong with that. ;)
From one turkey to a bunch of other turkeys -- Have a Happy Thanksgiving.
"Chillin' and holdin'" about says it. The opportunity for "shock and awe" is over. Now it's going to take a steady diet of news that's pleasing to the investor's ear -- not to mention NEW blood. Good news and exposure and we're gonna do very well. IMO, of course.
Unless, of course, one of them actually shot JR - lol
Bet it had jst a weeee bit to do with money.
All that volume yesterday, down to 5k today. Any WAG's as to wha'sappenin?
GASP! eom
Some volume today and some apparent buying. End-of-year tease?
Anyone here getting in on the WAG that Ihub's running? Wonder what WAG stands for, anyway.
Good luck,
Trainz

This one has all the earmarks of a winner, i.e., low float, product, sales, no promoters with their P&D, etc. However, there is never a sure thing ( at least that I've ever bet on ). So, you've got to make your own decisions and do the DD.
Good luck,
Trainz
Thanks, Steve. Will be doing just that as part of my whirlwind world tour once a certain stock lives up to its promises. lol
We're (Boston) supposed to get soaked again this Sunday/Monday
OT for Otter;
Ott, came across this website. Thought you might like to check it out (if you haven't already).

Apparently we need one or two of them in Vancouver. lol
