Pssssstt (a word in your ear) if you don't want me whacking your arguments out of the water then just "Post New Message" rather than respond to my post. That way I will NEVER know you responded.
You can still start it with "To dadofduck...........", I don't mind.
It is 9:25am, I am in in work and really should be doing 'work'. When I have more time to waste on responding to your moot points I will respond at length but the one glaring flaw in this latest attempt is:
What could possibly progress the company more than establishing KBLB as the company with everything listed above? With the massive new capital, he could buy virtually anything he wanted to progress both the science and production of Monster silk in the quantities needed for revenues.
KB me and you are like peas in a pod. I'm lemon, you're lime. I'm Fred, you're Ginger. I'm Wayne, you're Garth. I'm Batman, you're Robin. I'm Arnie, you're Devito ha haaaaaaaaaaa
Firstly a correction as my point has been twisted somewhat. I do not hold bleaters in contempt for expressing their views. I welcome ANYBODY’s views regardless of which end of the scale those views lean. I DO HOWEVER hold bleaters in contempt, for BLEATING.
Something new to the table = welcome viewpoint
Something heard to the point of feeling inclined to drive pencils into one’s eyes = bleating
I’ll tell you why it could be detrimental to investors, I imagine that it would be of at least short term benefit to investors. Not necessarily to long term investors but to short termers and undoubtedly to traders. The publicity will undoubtedly cause a sh!tstorm, big news that will fire us up into the stratosphere. However what then? When people realise that we don’t have a deal, don’t have revs and could well be 6-12 months from any cash? Straight back from whence it came. Well that’ll look good on the chart won’t it?? Next minute people want to know what happened? Why with so much potential has the PPS of this stock been dropping like a stone? Next minute more people are looking at the stock and pointing out it’s flaws (CSC, one-man band etc) and we are back where we started. Traders or shorts get their money and others get burnt.
I am happy where we are for one good reason: “We are not their YET”.
When we get there, the publicity will take care of itself.
At this moment in time publicity takes effort and time. For the reasons detailed above, I do not want Kim wasting any of his time on anything but progressing the company. Note I said progressing the COMPANY, not progressing the PPS. Kim spending time on this would be of detriment to investors because it would take time and effort away from his main goal, progressing the company. I suppose Kim could employ another IR/PR person but how would they be paid (at this moment)? CSC money of course, cracking idea!!!
When we release BIG news (i.e commercialisation or pure SS), if Kim/KBLB continue in the same manner and the company pays as little attention to IR/PR as they do now, I will come over to your side of the fence, buy you a drink and tell you that I was wrong. In fact I will buy you a bottle of vintage Patron. I will probably drink some of it myself to wash down the humble pie that I will need to eat..........I’ll let you know that you had a good point in the four hundred thousand posts that you made on the topic. I will apologise with all sincerity. BUT until that point, my apologies and wallet will be kept to myself (and I cannot imagine that EVER changing).
For me, I have given you two good reasons. Undoubtedly you will disagree and respond and because I will receive notification of the response, I will be aware of the response……..regrettably.
That would be nice Greg, hope it happens.
I listened to the interview with stockradio again last night. Listening to this and previous CC's always put a smile on my face, strengthen my resolve, boost my confidence (even further) and get me excited. I think I'll try and rip them and put them on my iPhone...............

Alas Mojo you are correct. If I had listened to your hindsight/after the fact ramblings then I would have had excellent profits. However in the absence of a Delorean and the assistance of MJ Fox I would have probably found it difficult to submit the advised trades in time.
FYI I am over my break-even point so no stress there.
Cheers Ray. Talk about spoiling a newbies party. Was getting carried away there!!
They're having cocktails!! It's a PARTY ha ha ha
Ok thanks again!
Cheers td!
Is the cocktail party and breakfast buffet (including the offer of asking questions at breakfast) a new thing or has that been agreed in advance?
Please accept my apologies for my DD laziness in advance!!
Well the drinker in me tells me it'd be a bad idea to give people bad news while hungover. Especially if I was the one buying the booze!!
I am pretty new to this stock but if the company has bad news, they seem to be pretty willing to put themselves right in the firing line of disgruntled investors................doesn't look to me like a company about to release bad news. IMHO it looks to me like a company that may well publicly release some good news prior to the shindig on Thursday night before getting to the nitty gritty details on Friday.

My word,I would rather listen to mojo than you....................
BTW better to 'PM' me as otherwise I won't know you replied.

Conspiracy theory would be YOU repetitively implying that the PPS is being intentionally kept low (for what reason I have no idea) and that our IR is intentionally keeping us out the media (for what reason I have no idea).
If I believed in conspiracies, I'd have to consider the "market", with minimal new investors, is being manipulated by a few to keep the pps as low as possible.
"Confusion" is exactly what is needed to keep the pps low, confusion over the science, financing, etc. is promoted everyday on this board
The silence is deafening. After the peer review, along with the following media interest, only a concentrated effort by KBLB's IR could achieve the goal of burying this story.
You're right, the news is spreading, but it only makes Ben's job more difficult to keep KBLB out of it.
I think you missed my point.
Because one poster makes a comment like "we don't care what the public thinks" does that make it KBLB's strategy??
I think a dose of reality is needed. Just because somebody makes a comment on the board, it doesn't automatically get elevated to "OFFICIAL KBLB STRATEGY"
It was a comment, he is a poster, he is not KBLB. You make out that because he said so, it is so.
I would imagine that Kim does care what the public thinks but at this stage, keeping people like you in the loop obviously does not take top priority. I believe that is for good reason. You on the other hand believe that something is amiss and there is an earth shattering / conspiracy'esque reason for keeping us in the dark. Why can you not accept (or at least ponder) the idea that the silence (your words not mine) IS FOR GOOD REASON? You should try it, it doesn't leave the mind feeling quite so twisted as the conspiracy theory mindset.
Bit of a wall of support at 0.08 on the level 2. About 340k shares worth.
Oh, that's right, our new strategy is that we don't care what the public thinks. Brilliant.
Not sure if anybody has posted these already:

I like the analogy fatcat, KBLB is like a piñata, a pretty big one at that filled with all kinds of goodies.
The difference between my version of the analogy and yours is that in my version the piñata is still in the workshop being filled before being sealed up to be let loose on the market. The market has a pretty big stick and when given the opportunity is going to knock the living daylights out of the piñata.
I'll be one of the fat kids that has the innate ability to harness lightning speed only at the sight of candy as it spills from the beaten piñata
The CANT is still there!
Whether it matters to him (in his heart & head) more than most is subjective and nobody but him can know either way (although I cannot imagine putting your heart, soul, life and finances and not caring about it more than most, to think anything else would be ridiculous).
Even Duck understands the concept that in money terms, the PPS matters more to him than ANYBODY else. In the event that you don't understand that notion, I will ask her to call when she returns home from kindergarten.
BTW I am not talking about the short term PPS. If this was what you meant then I rescind the above and agree, Kim cares little about the short term PPS. I would be quite alarmed to invest in a company that had a CEO who was over-concerned with the short term PPS. For me that would look like he was looking for an exit point. Can't accuse dear Kim of that!
In more ways than just one, it means more to him than anybody.
Agreed, he could issue himself more but nothing thus far (apart from your unwarranted speculation) has given any indication that he would do that.
I understand your concerns Pedro but if these sales were executed then I would imagine nobody more than Kim T would be wanting some shareholder value.
Then we will have to endure more asinine comments until it happens in March.
Cheery picked from the same Mojo post in a similar manner as you have done:
Kim has managed to place himself in a position to capitalize on that success if it is possible to do so
Is this statement for real? Who on this earth would SERIOUSLY believe that spidersilk products may not be possible candidates for capitalisation?
The problem is that monstersilk didn't sell..no one but Kim knows why..and he isn't talking..the reasons for this could be many..there lots of speculation and excuses floating all over the board..but no one knows..
Although technically correct as it does not appear to have sold YET, Mojo has conveniently left the word YET out of the situation. Monster Silk has not sold YET. We all know the reasons why, even Mr "no DD" has understood that part 100%
Oh and on the subject of Kim not talking, I believe this is him talking about Monster Silk just a week or so ago"“This material is so superior, it’s hard to see why anyone would prefer to have regular silk when they could have spider silk or a spider silk blend,” said Kim Thompson, CEO of Kraig Biocraft, a Michigan-based company with exclusive rights to market the new fiber. “I do think that it’s going to largely replace the regular silk market.”

"
There are all kinds of undocumented advances with spidersilk being claimed all over the board...but no one really knows..except Kim..and he is talking in vague terms.. Hang on! I thought he wasn't talking?? Aaah now he is talking but only in vague terms. How unusual for a lawyer who may well be in the middle of contractual negotiations to not be more loose lipped and reveal all!
IMO kblb still has a long way to go with the science and business before they will see revenues of any kind..if they ever do This is a subjective point that I would never discourage, provided some sort of reasoning were given?
Oh there will be news..the pps will fluctuate..Money can be made..people will get excited...the booyas will get posted Completely agree that this part at least is common sense, nobody can argue with these statements. Duck could have made these obvious comments and she is not 2 years old yet. If odd comments such as these are enough rational for you to believe that "All of his posts are largely common sense.", then I am afraid I do not have the will to respond. I capitulate.
Wowzer!! It's always amazed me how much padding you guys wear to play 'rugby' in!
Ah well, if it makes KBLB make more money, who am I to judge??
When we turn that corner (that you continue to insinuate we will never turn), will you go away and leave us alone?
Don't worry I do not need an answer as I know without a doubt that you will. Anything else would result in embarrassment of the highest order.
One of the things I love about investorshub is the ability to drag up every single word that people have posted in the past just by looking through all their old posts. There's no hiding from it, ihub doesn't lie!!!
By the way, if you come back as igotthemojo2, we will know it is you!
Ha ha the master of 'out of context' comments strikes again!!
That's a nice thought. Hope you're right but if not you would have thought SWA would have been all over the recent PRs and articles like a fat kid at the all you can eat. You're theory makes a lot of sense!
Come on ZF, you telling me you aren't buying this?:
BLOX™ - NEW DISCOVERY!
SAAs -- the perfect protein that you've never heard of ...
What exactly are SAAs?
SAAs (Silk Amino Acids) are a remarkable and innovative Amino Acid Sequence just recently discovered by a bold team of scientists. You see, SAAs are a chain of eighteen plus particular amino acids -- but, it’s not so much the eighteen that researchers found to be of greatest import … it’s five -- yes, five -- in a precise sequence and precise ratio that matter! And, when these five SAAs are in this precise sequence and precise ratio … it’s like turning on football stadium lights in pitch black darkness!!!
Not sure who it was who made the original post as it was obviously deleted but I will wholeheartedly hold my hands up and say that during the last few months, I have contributed little of value to this board. I've been busy, really busy, apologies all. I can certainly say that I have taken a lot more than I have given. I have taken information and given little in return.
I have given little because I refuse to:
1. Give out misinformation or half truths
2. Publish outright lies
3. Give repetitive ramblings of (only) negative information that everybody already knows about
4. Make statements without doing DD (even if I make a proud disclaimer that I 'NEVER' do DD
5. Say "same old same old"
6. All of the above because I am incapable of my own original thought and prefer to follow unscrupulous shepherds
I can also say I would never provide anything to the board with the intention of personal benefit to the detriment of the other posters.
Unfortunately there are people here who consistently continue to the things I refuse to do. For those, I choose to ignore. I think it's obvious but unfortunately there are some people that will naively take the bait.
I cannot wait for the impending big news. On that day I may reverse my 'ignores'. I will start to ignore EVERYBODY except those currently on my 'ignore' list. Then wallow in the silence.
In King's absence, lame-ass DD attempt ha ha:
May not be a massive money earner but possibly a complimentary sideline............
http://store.bpisports.net/products/blox
The products they are referring to are silk amino acids or as we know them, Sericin. Apparently the 'holy grail of muscle building' (this is standard 'speak' in the supplements industry so may as well ignore). But the science seems to back the claims up:
http://www.ergo-log.com/silkaminoacids.html
In short, the mix of aminos in Sericin seems to have a synergistic effect in improving muscle mass, fat loss etc. The supplements industry is massive business, especially in your homeland. Unfortunately it's full of BS but the products that work can hit the big time (jeeeez even most BS products earn megabucks)
Apparently they've been used in skincare and haircare products for years now. Not a great money earner in these markets and we would obviously be competing with the other Sericin producers.
http://www.annabellina.com/silkaminoacids.html
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_amino_acid
Now what if we had a USP as a result of the Sericin that is produced by Spidersilk producing silkworms?? What if the mix of aminos in the spidersilk sericin had an even better synergistic effect toward people's fitness/strength goals?? This would be a marketers dream and would fit the industry standard marketing like a glove. How cool to be using spider silk aminos to gain muscle, lose fat and get strong? The 'spin' possibilities on this product would be endless (couldn't resist).
ZF, your scientific input??

You're welcome son.
Hello Retro,
Just taken a quick gander at the trades and one thing that popped out was the movement of over 833,250k shares in 2 mins from 15:09 to 15:11. Wow!
Resulted in a 3-4% drop but good to see it came back from whence it came and a bit more
GLTY
Props to you Saint. That article was immense and funnily enough told us more about the company's plans than I could have imagined!
Ha ha boom boom
Cheers Ray!!
Although an apparent negative Blip on the radar, to me this news says that they have hit a few unexpected problems during the drilling and it's cost a little more than they planned. I'm a glass half full kind of person so what I read into this is that although small hurdles have been met, they are full steam ahead with the program. This is a clear indication of the company's intent, certainly doesn't indicate they know something we don't.
I'm in the industry, even a pretty deep well's drilling costs are a drop in the ocean (excuse the pun) once the reservoir is secured. Minor blip.
BTW what depth is the seabed and what depth do they estimate the reservoir to be?
Cheers Red! Good to be here!
