What is the point of stating that news is coming via tweet and then not follow it up timely???!! They aren't selling shares, so what was the point??
It will go up...but not in 2 weeks....
This is settled in for the day, IMO. May see "power hour", but I don't think so. Also no reason to sell with growing MOMO, this should be steadily growing, leading into the near end of month announcement that product is in all Walmarts. When that announcement comes out, assuming quantities are announced, this stock will move again....then this will start to fall until Q4 financials come out.
No Target announcements likely this year at this point. The holiday season orders for all of the major chains are being or have already been made.
I just hope that the announcement comes via a PR and not on their board to generate interest in the company....
I was told by Mack a while ago that Peter had been let go. Of course, that was also at the time that Mack was disputing his contract/salary so who knows what is true....
Maybe Peter is going independent with his own company or he is still part of SYNJ....
Hard to know what is true/what to believe....
Dragon/Captain: My guess is that at least one of you is in communication with Brian, as I don't think that you have been getting all of your information via your own DD (I could be wrong). Anyway, let him that while his shareholders are frustrated, emotional, etc. we are here partially because we are stuck, but also because we believe/hope that he is going to bring his plan to fruition. At least an explanation of who is work on SRE going forward would be helpful.....can't imagine that knowing that would cause any risks or damage to the company.
A while ago, almost a year ago, via a PR or post on the BCND board stated that they were going to use the property in the woods as a hunting lodge.
There was never any follow-up to that as to progress, marketing, etc., but this is the season, or it is coming, if I am correct....
I think that there are deer in the area of the property.
My announcement wish list
1) The re-birth of Cevil is so that it will be the company in Florida that will sell the bricks and steel.
2) The hunting lodge is setup for hunting season and reservations are being made.
3) The lawsuit has been filed, a quick judgement rendered and we got paid.
4) The "merger" is final and we are now part of a well-funded transparent company.
5) Revenues have already been achieved,including the remaining $5M.
6) Audited financials show the money.
How does what they are doing compare with this site?
http://www.android.com/market/#app=com.wsl.CardioTrainer
How is what sthg is developing any different than what is already available?
What ever happened to the Chinese investor? The $5M LOI??
I too like the news, BUT, if you go back almost a year ago, this is very familiar.
Remember that they said that they had a warehouse picked out and it was done. Then they said that there was a warehouse available via grant. What happened to those warehouses??
Now we have 4 options, meaning nothing closing soon. Not saying that they aren't doing the right thing...just saying that we have been down this road before and got nothing for it...
I hope this time is different.
I AM RIGHT THERE WITH YOU!
I predicted this....so predictable...Brian is not a liar, just not in charge of everything that happens.
Remember that he has got to get SYNJ board approval, board approval from the other company, and then get various pieces in place to execute the deal. This all takes time....
Sell, please!!!!
I hate it when people spout "News Coming!!" "PR on Monday!!" and then when there is nothing, there is nothing but disappointment from people who are watching or new to the stock.
News is coming, but not immediately. I would focus on later this week into next week.
Based on the PR, the board is reviewing an offer that sells between "18% to 30% interest in SRE". What does that mean? Well, considering the fact that SYNJ's offer was for 20%, it seems to me that the other company counter-offered and stated a range based upon various factors, IMO.
What I think is happening is that the other company is interested but will want a varying share based on revenue, their involvement (expertise) used to get to production, etc. Makes sense to me...is what I would do.
That kind of a deal requires some analysis. Also, not likely we will be told of the deal until the money is actually in SRE hands.
All is IMO...
My thought is that two weeks ago BEEN/BECI was presented by the CEO with a 20% offer. Based on the recent PR from the other company, my guess is that some modifications to the proposal were made so that BEEN/BECI get ownership % based on role in growth (18-30%) such as resources/technical knowledge, etc.
Makes sense to me....
That would take a few days for review to approve.....
Just a thought.....
No problem here. I posted my allowed one post of the day on the other board already anyways. :)
Great DD!!
Thanks....found it!!!
The 5s are where a lot of people have sell orders at, is my guess.
Nice to see that Brian's concept of time has not changed. Two days from Tuesday could have meant Wednesday, but definitely no later than Thursday. But, here we are on Friday and there is no news....
My comment about this is not an attempt to damage Brian or SYNJ, just to point out that he COULD HAVE stated "shortly" or "in a few days", or "soon"...no, instead he stated a couple of days which generated a FALSE frenzy....anyone remember the story of the boy who cried wolf???!! Just saying, he can't continually say one thing in a PR and not follow-up with it as per his own commitment and expect people not to take issue.
I think that this a long term gold mine, but he continues to make this difficult to grow the PPS.
A question: why is it, if we are about to merge with another company, that there has been NO PR/announcement from the other company? Wouldn't you think that the shareholders of the other public company would want to know? Did anyone see another PR out there from the possible suitor?
"NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS" from date of PR is today. If it goes past tomorrow without PR, as I stated in prior posts, Brian's already damaged credibility takes even more of a hit...
The PR was a fluff PR, whether you like or not. A lot of people bought shares the last couple of days thinking that this is going to be a quick buck and could now end up being accidental longs or taking losses. My guess, based upon Brian's past PR history is that a PR is not coming out soon. Again, I only have his historical PR approach to go by.
It is too soon...IMO....I think that if he really wanted to grow the pps, screw the MMs and I think eventually RS once a real business value has been established, he is going to need to wait until we are closer to or in October.
Either way, I have a lot of shares, believe in the long term future here and am not selling a share. Also not buying any based on this hype.....
Churning on pure speculation...on a non-detailed PR. I like the promise of the PR, just think this is pure speculation at this point.....
For Our Sake:
1) Brian PRs again before the end of the week as intimated in yesterday's PR.
2) Flippers don't kill any real MOMO.
3) Next PR has real meat on it.
4) The other company has more recent experience than something from almost 7 years ago as referenced in the PR.
5) The other company is not buying into SRE/SYNJ by diluting their own company's shares. That would give us two diluted companies...
6) That if this goes up, that it can hold/sustain to be able to hit higher levels as this company progresses from idea to reality.
7) Brian seems to be on the warpath against the MMs. That fine as long as he doesn't lose sight of the business...the MMs are more powerful than he is and I worry that we end up casualties on the battlefield.
Love the energy that the PR is creating, but the euphoria will not last....the pps also will not move alot.
Brian, while I think is trying to make this work, does not have a lot of credibility right now, and the PR really does not confirm that anything will happen....just promises of something that could happen.
Also, we heard a lot of great things about Mack and Peter when they joined and that went nowhere.... I like that this other public company is buying int SYNJ/SRE, is demanding control of how their money is spent, etc.
But the reality of this is to be seen. I want to know who this CEO of the other company is, be able to research and validate past successes...then we can talk about making real money....
All that being said, this is lining up very well for end of the year and 2011!!
If it is fraud then the loan never existed. Therefore, there is no loan to get.
If that is the case, then Peter and his cohorts would be walked over to criminal courts after this case is settled.
IF, however, the issue was an error of some sort and not criminal intent, then, due to the passage of time, the agreement would be voided and the money in escrow returned, unless all parties agreed to move forward together.
Considering that Brian essentially stated on PickensPlan that money is not an obstacle to acquire the warehouse, either a) they got the loan elsewhere, or b) got the $1M from the new 20% owner.
My guess is that they got the $1M from the new partner because, as per a previous PR, they used all of their capital for the escrow. I think we will hear more right before the new round of divvies are issued in October.
Relax and enjoy the ride.
Anyone think it is interesting how Brian had so much to say for a week, and then he has gone silent...??? Strange...curious even...
Good afternoon.
1) The past does not matter....if the business takes off PLENTY of people will buy in. People may be cautious initially, but if things are moving here, they will jump on board. Remember...Greed Wins!
2) Brian posted (IMO) on the PickensPlan site for two reasons: a) to communicate with us/create a buzz; b) to counteract Mac's firing him as Leader.
3) This is Brian's last chance with this business opportunity. He went to the one source (PickensPlan) he has to find someone else to help him launch the business, but he cannot go to it again after this. People have clearly dismissed the prior issues, but won't do it again if this time fails also.
4) The people that he has gotten to help him are hungry for success and will be eager to work with him. This is a significant difference from Mack who had too many other priorities and was using this as a launching pad for his other initiatives.
5) Based on legal docs (great job Dragon, as always!!) Brian/SYNJ trusted Mack and Peter and at least Peter proved to be either a fraud or incompetent. Brian, to his credit (rare statement) did the right thing in theory by trusting his "experts" and they screwed him.
6) This still is alive and well...Brian will have to show now that he really can get it done now though. It is now ALL ON HIM....
Lord almighty...someone purposefully trying to stop any success by sabotage posts on PickensPlan?? Really?? Why? So you really hate Brian that much that you would do anything to see him fail? Does that hatred have to impact us, who have done nothing wrong but potentially deciding to believe that he, as CEO of SYNJ, can possibly make us a few bucks?
Other posters talking about Brian as a person, the company's stock pps future, may be 100% correct and everything that they say may be 100% the reality, but, that does not give anyone the right to do things to ensure that this is a failure...
Snowdog: I agree with you that Brian maybe should have been more involved in the details, but my understanding was that he was involved, on-site in SC most of the time, actually probably more than Mack was, which may have been part of the problem.
Anyway, we have a company that is TRYING to do something. Brian is TRYING. For many reasons that have been discussed here, the climate is a tough one, but can be done. He didn't just sit and wait for the federal funds that never appeared, he did not sit back and get into a deal that would have financially crippled the company, he made decisions to take a step back, re-group and try again.
Now he has two warehouses, a potential deal with another public company...let's give the man some credit and space to operate and save judgement for a few weeks.
The one thing that I think all of us agree is that there are a LOT of warehouses/facilities available today. So what if there is a delay? Really, is that the worst thing to happen? Isn't it better that he gets the right deal, with the right people and support to make it successful?
In one year he realized that Mack was not the right guy at the helm. My guess is that Mack and Brian were both to blame for their joint failure, but what I like is that Brian is keeping it going, identifying opportunities, bringing in new people, and forging ahead.
I, just like everyone else, am waiting to see what he is able to accomplish, if he can REALLY close the deal.
Bash, pump, do whatever you want, it doesn't seem like he is deterred or distracted by any of us. I also think that we are a few weeks away from big news.
I only hope that IF he is able to buy the warehouse, etc., that those that think this stock is destined to stay at .0001 to nothing and/or think that Brian is a liar, loser, etc., will either go away or admit that they were wrong....
The last post by him could be at least partly due to what you are saying. I have no doubt that he knew that people were aware of his posts. But what is really wrong with him doing that? isn't it a good and free way to communicate with us vs a PR which would have the same results?
Look I am not convinced yet that anything will come of this but I am willing to give him a chance. I am not going to just simply character assassinate him on his failures as a person, husband etc. Whatever he is as a person is of little interest to me..
Plenty of big time CEOs have skeletons in their closet equal to or worse than Brian's issues. the only thing that matters are results with bio-fuel.
To that end, there have been spattering results. But, to be fair to him, the work with Mack was his first try at it. And he relied, due to lack of choice on Mack to get it done. Mack was not, and that is a fact, not focused solely on SC. Should he have been? Did he give enough attention? I don't know those answers, but clearly Brian and the Board thought that he should give more focus and commitment and Mack wanted cash.
Now Brian is looking for someone else to help him, probably in a project/employee role, to get this going as he resets the project. Where else would he look? Of course he would go back to the Pickens Plan site. There are plenty of contacts, people who will work with him....
Now, this is the last shot he has at a reset.
With the claim is that there are interested parties to work with SYNJ Brian has got to do this right this time... or game over. I still say that even if there are additional shares that he could put into the market....he will make more money getting this going then selling shares at .0004.
Let's give him a chance to get something going...he knows there are a lot of eyes on him and that he PRd a lot of stuff that did not happen, talked to individual shareholders, which is not allowed, and will have a lot of people to answer to if he does not get this off the ground.
I am giving until end of September to PR something showing real progress.

ABOUT GEI, LLC
The company that Brian is talking to per Picken Plan communication is Green Energy Initiatives, LLC.
Brian is talking to Jim Lewis, Chief Operating Officer.
Green Energy Initiatives formed in 2009 after the Mingo Leadership Ministerium, a group led by local clergy (Mingo Junction) interested in creating new jobs to rebuild families and the community, held a series of meetings, including one where a green energy company that makes solar street lighting among its other products, made a presentation.
From there, GEI formed, has grown in business acumen with the participation of former steel company executives, engineers and others, and has begun making sales of products and building prototypes of others.

Shoot the bird
Thank you...that was something I was trying to figure out as well.
I appreciate the explanation.
QUESTIONS
1) How dedicated was Mack to SYNJ? MEG always was 100% seperate from SYNJ. Mack was in Michigan, working on international deals....really, how long was he in SC? Also, if he truly believed in the business opportunity, why wouldn't he put up some of his own collateral, retain 51% control of SRE and make it successful?
2) Do we have the money $5M? To accept that $1M equals 20% of the business, we would have to assume that we do indeed have the $5M, no?
3) Buyers/Sellers: Looking at another company that is in alt. fuels, they have a supplier and buyer figured out and still have not built anything. Do we?
4) CAPTAIN: Why do you say news next week? Guessing or know something?
5) EZZY8: Why are you not speaking up now?
6) Is Brian trying to figure out a way to pump the stocl right before the next round of divies are due (Oct) to squeeze Ameritrade, etc.? He has mentioned that before as a goal of his.

I am new to the stock...
after reading all the PRs and doing some DD, I have one question.
Why is it trading so low? What happened in June that created the fall?
What is the share structure? OS / AS
Thanks
I remember when SYNJ mattered...when people cared and actually posted here.
But no information, no trust, and people feeling like fools/bag holders.....and this is what you get...a very quiet site, with in-fighting.
Never mind...GLTA
Well - I don't know how MY post deserved a snarkey response like that, but okay...
You did give your opinion as did the other poster. Regardless of opinion, tomorrow will play out, and we will see who is right.
You might want to relax a little....
Oh, by the way, been holding shares since the trips....
Well, tomorrow we will see who is right.
All I know is that this has been a mainstain on my portfolio for one reason, this has incredible potential.
Personally, this announcement is the setup for the USA Lowes announcement, which may not be for a few months, but it is coming.
I also think that once that happens, this company is going to be a REAL takeover target.
Think about it:
1) Significant US and international footprint
2) Multiple products
3) Growing brand recognition
4) Safe and environmentally friendly
A company out there will want to buy up this company at some point....now Eric may not want to sell, but that is another issue.
Let's break THIS down:
1) New company is unknown. Is it a shell as others claim? Does it have experience in alt. fuels? Does it have revenues, proven track record?
2) How will we know that the money ACTUALLY changed hands? Anyone seen evidence of the $5M+ we supposedly got early in the year?
3) More divis at .0001 does crap for us
You are welcome to dance around and celebrate, since you have the "insider" information, but I will wait until Brian and the BOD show that they actually have something real.
They need to regain our trust.
I find it laughable that Brian and Mack are sick of us shareholders. Tell them to deliver on what they said they were going to do and they will be heros. Or at least provide solid updates/explanations.....
This is the stock that everyone knows about but never saw coming.
that sounds about right....MMs are going to happily walk it down.
no buying pressure...creates an environment for walking it down....which could create some panic selling....
the only thing is the volume is too low right now for it to drop significantly.
either way, the stock will bounce up again...
I will be joining you shortly....buying more, that is.
something tells me there is a nice run coming.
I am not saying it was good or bad....I am saying I take a wait and see approach. I have my opinion, but have plans either way it plays out.
