likewise...

URS is a major consulting firm that bills people out at $150/hour. They could not be bothered with telling some small company what permits they need. I believe JJ would be talking about some private guy with a brain... like a Construction Manager.

he is right about permits having to come before construction. and if they did not have the right permit.. they can be forced to completely dissassemble, and then reassemble the whole thing.

so my hunch proved correct today. I do think this is an excellent stock in the long term though. Good solid gainer... especially when your Yank economy gets it's ass off the ground... (Canuck here).

i just may end up working in New York after all that...

if you are talking about TWB, just because a stock defies the numbers once does not make my awesome powers of prediction any less powerful.

Your post was written prior to today's announcement.

Note the lacklustre performance of the stock after the lacklustre earnings announcement. Nothing about defying the numbers here...

I was unsuccessful in getting out at 1.57. I would have bought back in... would have been a nice little flip..

Better luck for us all next time.

The TSX Venture Exchange would be more appropriate for JBI. That is where I find most startup or growth stocks... it is a fun, exciting market.

just where did Xenophon come from, who is he/ she and what are they trying to do to the JBII board!!! all in one day.

(Spongetech, no less)

i-s-l-e-c-h-e-m

so I was wondering why the upswing... earnings tomorrow...

just purely by observation... this kind of speculation occurs often with stocks... and usually is not warranted by the outcome... but that is just observation.


any reason why it should skyrocket tomorrow? Indicators indicate Overbought.

i have none... my price is maybe .20. where all of this started.

actually he has a JV with Heddle Marine to build p2O ships.

But the question remains.. who is going to foot the bill? that is the problem with JVs. great in theory (he must have learned that at harvard), but someone still has to pay for it. who is th eend customer? a % of nothin is still nothin...

i think that idea must have come from his harvard strategy/ merger class.

what, the "worlds larget engineering archive" or the ships? which is funnier?

soon they might also be lower imo.

weren't the media credits payment to a company, i think javaco?

funny that he does not believe in synergy then...

JB's reputation = "impeccable"? Didn't he drop out of Brock and take a few odd classes at Harvard? Anybody can take a few classes at bus school these days..

remember this EP? I guess you still have a chance of being correct... this was only like 2 months ago.

yes. i take it that "tentative" means that it is scheduled, but with full knowledge that it might not happen (have to be cancelled) because JBI may not be ready. Corollory: they are not ready as we speak.... possibly the test requires that they be running in steady state. Any system must run for a time to achieve the "steady state" operational characteristics in terms of emissions. Possibly, like a car engine, the process is quite dirty for a time... much like getting an emissions test on your car. I remember during the CC he said he was having trouble with steady-state operation. This could explain it.

that fits with my industrial experience. it is what I would do if i were JB and did not want to raise any false hopes. i would set a target, and go for it... and if i fail, reset the target.. reschedule.

His exact words were "tentatively scheduled".

Anybody who knows anything about scheduling or planning knows that that combination of words is an oxymoron. By definition, something that is scheduled is not tentative. I am a scheduler/ planner. So we must guess what exactly he meant.

depending on how difficult it is to achieve steady-state operation... it could take months to finalize the stack test, although the stack test itself is a mere formality. A simple test... the real issues is p2O itself.

Pure conjecture on my part, but I listened to the CC and this would be my best guess.

i got the impression from the CC that production issues are forcing rescheduling of the stack test. just a hunch, it was indirect.

they will start producing within months... but they will likely have production issues. kinks to work out. steady-state operation will be a challenge... and.. not profitable for awhile, maybe never..

that is a realistic view.

isn't it better to assume the worst possible case in the stock market and only buy those where there is no conceivable possible way they could fail? I admit being a devil's advocate and skeptic with this stock, but they are leaving so many issues open to interpretation and allowing so many opportunities to fail.... it is impossible to assume anything else!!

108 bbl = $70 X 108 = $7560/day.

nice number, but there is something really hilarious in terms of a mental picture involving a farmer, a P20 machine, 108 barrels of oil, and 20 TONS of plastic...

i think there may be a few issues with logistics..


ROFLMAO

enough "fuel" to "run their household"? this is the kind of incomplete thought that kills a company.

Questions that comes to mind:
- my utilities come to $75 every 2 months plus heating, which is natural gas. Who cares about $75?
- how easily can i adapt the output to "run my household"?
- will the "fuel" burn in my furnace?
- if I do burn it in my furnace, will I need a new furnace in a year?
- do I need a generator?
- will I need a new generator in a year?
- and what the heck is "near deisel"...?

ROFL

what price did this Kidd get the shares for or effective price if it was for 10M media credits?

companies that pay people in stock because they are trying to save cash are always so flaky...

whether or not the MACD crosses the line (supposedly indicating reversal) depends on what time frame you select. These indicators are horse puckey for the most part.

actually I am seeing the same thing. I replied to Steady T on a positive supportive note but threw in a bit of humor. got Deleted. I don't get it. i am having it reviewed... i am accustomed to the negative posting thing (where they get deleted), but this was like "good point".. ??

if he lets p2O fade that would be one change too many. I think that would invite litigation, or revolt, or something very BAD. He has no choice but to make ti successful now.

i guess I am just not into it...

excellent comment...

well really, let's market to people who stay p at 1-2 AM on a regular basis and have nothing better to do than to turn on the TV... it has nothing to do with bigotry.. most people work 9-5, most people that make serious money work 9-5...

i suppose that he is doing this because he has those media credits?

and he can't be bothered doing the tape business to make some real money so he can do some real marketing, can he?

those brands rely totally on infomercials too, using no other marketing strategies...

good summary... see my other post...

http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=52876570

or they would go for simple shelf space in a real distribution channel.

just what I said. the real issues are what was referred to in the conference call. There are lots of real issues because this is a new process and plant. He is figuring it out as he goes along.

4kids has done a good summary.

Thing is, he only let those issues into the public domain because he had to, to somewhat explain the delay. Don't assume that those are all the issues... we don't know when they will have the stack test. that is why JB covered himself by saying the date was tentative. He can cancel if he is not ready, which he is clearly was not as of the CC. If he has been ready, it would not have been tentative.

dips? 7.00 to .80... one heck of a dip. more like a gross overvaluation followed by a crash.

all depends on what JB does. If he just shuts up and sells fuel, who cares what he does with the blending plant? If he vacillates and does not sell fuel, instead making promises about blending and how that has suddenly become more important, so important that he cannot be bothered selling fuel (like he can't be bothered with the tape business),, then he is fair game.

infomercials are for cheap crap that is not worth anything. Not worth the supposed real price, not worth the amazing discounted price.. not worth much of anything. If they were worth something, they would go for a real advertising time slot in a real market with a real demographic.

By the way, what is the target market for Pak-It, losers who stay up at night.. "night people" that watch TV all the time.

I don't even have cable. I may be generalizing, but it is true.

Someone had an idea about an ad at the Super Bowl for pak-it. They should try that.

because it has been getting close for months, which means it is not close at all... due to the real issues.

btw just in case may apply at .20.

OGINVU:

it is nice to be appreciated. So many don't (I think). Just tryin' to be helpful here...

Everybody has their hobbies. I think that JBI is an interesting stock. For some reason I feel no need to post on my own stocks because I find them via a different method. Weird huh?

I gave a few stocks that I learned about from this site a shot over the last few years and they sucked compared to my own methods...

yeah I would hate to miss the boat too,,, like if I go to the casino I may just become a millionaire... I think I will try craps, there is ONE situation in which there are positive odds in that game... only casino game where that is the case.

Actually did you Yanks know that there is a big casino in Niagara Falls where JBI is. It is trying to become the Vegas of Canada...
