off to work....

Apparently. Now viz is sending me private,nasty replies. Doesn't have the huevos to be open(reporting)!

d

Everyone(well.....almost everyone knows that uplisting a pinkie to reporting status gets more investors. Why? Because they are more trustable in that they are more transparent with their activities and financials.No investor feels warm and cozy putting money where they can't tell where it's going! Heck....for a while,the conversation on this board was whether Mop really existed at all! Why? No visibility. How are they made visible? Listing requirements.
It's a given. You know that,don't you?!
D

Hear ye, hear ye!

Exactly my sentiments,Singa...
The big uncertainty now is:now that they are fully positioned to deliver,will they get repeat orders.
They HAVE come a long way to get up to speed,but that time to do so cost them a bit. We'll see how it goes now. The cleanup is far from over and the sorbents are starting to be "the word on the street" now,so Mop could very well be working orders as we speak. There's a lotta competition out there for sorbents. I hope the visibility that Mop has been able to get with their greater products will set them apart and get them orders.
Congressional testimonies,BP endorsements and order(s),Gulf Breeze orders,nationwide coverage.....,.
they oughta be able to get more action,IMO.
D

I don't think someone knows something. More like everyone knows nothing(yet,of orders). It's the "not knowing" that drives people crazy about anything. It's human nature. It's doubt, plain and simple.
But,that doubt isn't really based on much more than over-hopefulness.
Times like this(waiting for the next orders) is just plain nervy.....however you slice it.
The best thing to do is keep a level head in order to know if to buy more,stay or sell.
I'm freakin' out a bit,too,but I have to realize that the cleanup is in it's infancy and Mop has already made sales inroads and will probably repeat them even if they have to slash prices.
They only last week got fully positioned to receive large and ongoing orders.....so it's too early to make a decision based on fear,no matter how scary it is. Take a breath,go for a walk.......get drunk with friends,then come back after humor is restored and THEN,I bet your sentiments will be more trustable.
The stock could care less who you are or what you do. It's gonna go where it goes. That being said.....there's a lot of respect I have for those Mop activists here that have MADE things happen by contacting various peoples who can make a difference. In pinkies,it probably DOES make a difference!
Jmo
d

I don't see that without substantial news(orders). If we stay at 20 without news,I'd be surprised.
If we DO get orders news.... Then we're back to the thirties. If really great orders(large,and ongoing), then we go past our highs into the forties plus.
Just my prediction...
The pps could care less what our particular positions and ideals are....
It's gonna be based on the bottom line.

I'd be happy to spell-check fer yiz!
My momma taught me how to spell like crazy...

deej

I personally think that the product choice is a bit more fluid than you suggest. They seem to have SOME idea of what they GENERALLY need.......but they are experimenting too.
They won't be haggling over tiny details,but rather choosing products that are available,that work in
particular situations(as they arise) and products that are approved(it seems that there is some form of product review process.Not laborious like the FDA,but effective enough and fast).
I doubt at this point whether they care too much about the finer points of the differing sorbent booms...as long as they work. However,if the requirements move to the superior products,then Mop
will be singled out. What will cause that to happen,I don't know........but that congressional testimony showing BP's blessings of Mop as the #1 choice might be leveraged in this politically correct green cleanup.
Either way,Mop makes the sorbent booms,pads,etc. What's not to like about that sales product?!
D

"...growing up my DAD pushed me to preform at my BEST i"

Dang,moon! Yer dad shoulda pushed you a little harder on your spelling!
Just funnin'........(but you gotta admit .....you GAVE that to me!)

Yeah,it's frustrating that Mop wasn't prepared to respond. But,now they are and the game is still on!
Cleanup is just beginning in earnest and methodolody..........so,better late than never,IMO.
Now............it's all about getting those orders.
Deej

I see. It's those little bugs(microbes),again!
If Mop's booms are competitively priced,then it's a no-brainer to get the better
Mop product.IMO,that is the "rub". Price and availabity,baby!
We got the availability. We've got the better product. It's the price that has to be competitive,too.
I see orders in
my crystal ball. Anyone see the same?
Deej

I wouldn't think that those other cellulosic booms are much different than Mop's. That's the great thing about cellulosics as opposed to synthetics: cellulosics perform better.
Just from what I've read about the cellulosics vs synthetics......
Even though that company got the jump on
Mop.....the way that company is overwhelmed tells me there's room for Mop(and others) to get into the action. I'm sure our boys at Mop-central are "workin' it" bigtime. We'll see word on orders,I'm bettin' on it.
My question is what makes Mop's recipe patentable and uniquely superior(performance-wise) than the " other guys"? (does Mop have coca leaves in there,too?)

deej

Yeah,me neither.
However,it is looking like the boom story is shifting more from the containment type to the sorbents,as the cleanup is getting more serious and as the central issue. So,I figure that we're gonna see a big call for sorbent materials of all kinds(booms,pads,etc).
I think Mop's gearing up operations has got substance to it in the way of expected forthcoming orders. Just a feeling...... but after researching more on the sorbent boom front,I got a better view of where we are in the cleanup and with what materials and methods are starting to be the standards: sorbent booms,pads and light skimmers for the shorelines.

That whole scenario won't happen.It's Obama's conviction and stance.........and BP's televised ad/statement(just saw their commercial stating as much: no taxpayer paying for their spill).
These "promises" are too visible to overtly renege on,IMO.
A little manipulation and/or "adjustment"....... yeah, maybe, but outright renege:no.
Jmo,
Deej

Rainmaker
Yer right.Wayne's testimony not only was his personal " opinion" .....but included a number of other "professional opinions" on the Mop tech(and similar tech). These very types of "professional opinions" certainly are looked at more seriously by all authorities involved in this spill matter ....and,as you suggest,could be made much of and given a lot of mileage. Those "professional opinions" sure sounded to me like Mop(and similar) products were singled out.
Like the fat lady said............."We shall see what we shall see..."

Yeah.....already posted twice today! Nice read, huh?!
Tia, deej

"Hmmm is 17-18 still support despite the dilution?"

I guess the answer to that question is about as solid as the beta!
And the beta is relative to the frequency and nature of new news.
So......IMO, "support" for Mop at this point in time is pretty fragile as I suspect most "investors" in Mop are short-termers looking for a nice gain in their > 6 month time horizon(but ready to bail on bad news at any split-second).
The fastest draw here wins,IMO. Watch for news,get a low position and daytrade your non-core position. And,don't set any stops! That's the way I feel it here.
Just my (probably rather "local")thoughts.....

Deej

"news after 4 2 day"...

Indian time,moon?
(in case you don't know what that means.....the expression:Indian time,refers to the meaning of "tomorrow" in American Indian speak:tomorrow= anytime after today). It could be years after today's 4pm and still be "tomorrow".....and remain an "accurate prediction"!
Nice call. I like a little flexibility in my predictions,too!
(just funnin'!)


deej

Thanx,pops
Just sent that vid to Wayne,along with a wink and a nod.
Wayne's pretty cool.He'll know where to file it.
Cheers,

PS It would have been great to have MOP as the company featured in the video,but ce la vie...
I'm sure that Mop will get more action on the orders front. Especially,since the owner of that company in the vid mentioned the continuing ops/orders/time-frame they estimate is 6 mos to 2 years! Did I hear that right!?!
I was feeling this morning that the cleanup phase is really in the beginning stages.
The geyser may be stopped this month,but there's a helluva lotta oil that's dumped into the Gulf in all this while.A HELLUVA lot.Absorbent booms and materials of all sorts will be needed for months and months,if not years.
Yakkity yak...

That was actually a great advertising post on the tech.
Thanks for the post. Nice find.

Well put.Not exactly complimentary,but to the point and a lot more realistic than hopeful numbers not based in the world we live in presently.Too bad. I could use a bump from a quarter to ten smackers .......

That's true. I couldn't believe how much oil that little amount of Mop locked up!
You gotta ship that vid to Chuckie-poo,asap.

Great vid,imperativity!!!!
Thanx so much for sharing that with everyone. It really gave me a way better idea of the Mop's potential,in action.Incredible stuff,this product!

The MOP "rescue" methodolgy is rather sketchy in the "segregation of the oil-laden Mop from the sand".
Anyone wanna clarify this:

"http://2017552972285096913-a-1802744773732722657-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/mopsalesdocuments/home/gulf-white-papers-1/USCG_WhitePaper_Sand_Wash.pdf?attachauth=ANoY7cpYBFieilPtLj7CMVMr5e3AOS8tPEyNyKzrrf2LJxBIQ1gSMrOhNt-DrF_9TSasKMpQCMqKBN4sPeeIhMkgC3HWKI28-moUA0FZFJbISg4LrLQMU-2x7nRvLcVFvqxUWCmCsqF2CHaMgzBGlb3HU8RDIrpdFngMRmU9u7PqcjLWVxOxEyk4xkea2DLfE6__VPnWezFThf3lDp9jYSQCgEPaJCQnr4mvwkAAN2CWMIOwy6T01Ktt4zJOmHt5UiX5rIqRU9Rm&attredirects=0&d=1

TIA,

PS In the Axelrod demo,where the rescue process was performed,the segregation of the oi-laden Mop sorbent(from the sand) was NOT demonstrated.I'd like to see that!
(Besides,I thought that the microbes would alleviate the necessity of removing the oil-laden sorbent...???)
???
Thoughts?

Yo,Roy
Pretty glad I bought more Mop yesterday!
Don't wanna be out of this anymore,anyday.PRs can come anytime these days.
Cheers!
Deej

I agree.It has become pretty clear that this play moves large on news.
With that,and the regularity of Mop developments,no one wants to be out of Mop over the weekends.That gives the pps only a few days to drop on "no news".At least,from an investors' pov.
So.....that makes for a pretty solid pps.
Also,most of the missing puzzle pieces are now found and fitted:( is Mop a real company?,will they get orders?,will the orders be canceled?, will they ship?, can Mop respond to large orders operations-wise?)
Now,with the operations question answered beautifully......
the risks are only about Mop getting more orders.
The risk cut now in a big way and investors packed into the last run waiting for the next PR,what's not to like!
Also,with the pps swings sooooo predictable....who would NOT want to play those swings with non-core positions and double their already multiple gains?!
I would and do

Sounds like Charlie has been trying for years to get something......anything.....off the ground.Mop seems to have been his darling but entertained other ventures thru the years.What entrepeneur hasn't done that?
Unconventional,perhaps,but "weird"......IMO,no. Maybe it feels a bit uneasy for investors to find out how ordinary Charlie's unconventional business life has been:struggling.
Maybe his boat has finally arrived?
We'll see.

Jmo,
deej

Yeah,my sentiments exactly.Us Hobbits tend more to the practical side,anyways
D

This news is fantastic,but also.....let's don't forget :this step HAD to happen,IMO, in order to accommodate future and larger orders.These alliances are partnerships in that,I am sure,all parties of this "step" will be needed in order to fill large orders.This is great news,but it was a necessary step in filling future large orders.Now,we wait for orders!

Yeah,I guess we have to trust the Mop crew at some point. Kinda hard with pinkies and $ on the line! But appreciate the line of questionings.
And this:
"me2 has replied to a post you made on MOP Environmental Solutions on Investors Hub:
Here's the link with the $155,000.00 figure...

http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=51439424&txt2find=155000

According to MOPNs website an 8" X 10' boom is $94.00 each or $128.00 each w/clips.

[Suppressed Image]

2,000 @ $94.00 would cost $188,000.00 and since MOPN has discussed lowering the price then the $155,000.00 may be correct."

deej

Me2

Here ya go.... A quote from Charlie himself:

" pilot to fly around the region with a banner reading, "We mop up oil." After weeks of being pestered, BP purchased its first three truckloads of the oil-absorbent material for $155,000, says MOP President Charles Diamond. "

well,there ya go. Twist it any way you like,but it's 3 truckloads of product for $155,000!
Good enough for me.
It's up to Charlie to move it and price it the way he can.....
