3DIcon Identifies $1.8 Billion Weather Forecasting Systems Market
No specific customers mentioned in the blog. They're just saying a 3d volumetric display could be used for meteorology.
"A glasses-free 3D volumetric display would allow multiple meteorologists to simultaneously observe the available 3D data as it streams real time from various imaging systems being used to monitor meteorological conditions and perform timely weather-related decision making."
Frankly, on a lot of days, I feel stupid for buying (especially my timing) and just as stupid for holding while it dropped in PPS. I can imagine a lot of markets that could utilize this product, but will they be funded enough to see it through? Will another company's tech surpass this by the time they start producing the product? How much more dilution before grants start coming in?

can anyone interpret Manu's tweet from last week to stocklordz ? @manukumaran: @stocklordz As Shah Rukh Khan says in Om Shanti Om - "picture abhi baaki hain mera dost"...
Flinders Resources to Acquire Big North Graphite
Under the terms of the Arrangement Big North shareholders will receive one Flinders common share (a "Flinders Share") for each nine Big North common shares (the "Big North Shares") resulting in the issuance of approximately 9 million Flinders Shares in exchange for 81 million Big North Shares.
Before anyone starts questioning the legality of using a famous song name, "Moon River" would have to violate a trademark. I already checked, and, although there are a few "Moon River" trademarks, none relate to movies or studios. Nothing to worry about there. Hopefully, Henry Mancini hasn't started rolling though.
I'm mad that we were never given a peep about the cost of promoting Yellow.
I'm furious that the RS is 1000-1. I was thinking 100-1, or even 20-1 if the price improved dramatically. Anyone know if the authorized does the same reversal?
I've lost a ton of money on the stock, but for a brief moment today I was profitable, which is nice. lol
Long because, at this point, I might as well let it ride.

Why does the 10Q say 500,000,000,000 common stock authorized in the balance sheet and 5,000,000,000 authorized capital stock in note 11?
Excuse my ignorance, but are these different categories?
I'll always have trouble trusting anything you say, Nadia, after you intentionally distorted, by omitting the important part of the sentence, what the judge's ruling said on July 23rd.
It all makes sense now. The "news" that came out was disheartening, in that, based on all their talk about the mine, I assumed that they were further along in getting it ready it to produce.
The Cardinal was right. Pumping is going on. Red Chip didn't seem so bad; now it's NIA too.
Frustrated.
Hoping for an an off-take agreement, but it seems just as far away as ever.
Am I missing any really good news here? Every new Spiro video seems like a replay of the previous one.
Sorry for the pessimism. Still long and glad to be back up to where I bought it.
Starting to move with decent volume, but why? I'm glad it's going up and I think it's still a bargain at this price, but how is it moving without any news?
Is it in anticipation of news, a new big investor, or is someone pumping?

How big was the trade that made it leap 100%?
I feel so stupid. I was in "Hide Intro" mode and thought the intro was blank and needed sprucing up. My sincerest apologies. Looks great.
Yes, it is obvious that they are an artist's depictions. The reason I'm excited about them and I think other potential investors would be is that the TDCP website doesn't sell itself very well to visual people (while they engineer a visual product). Obviously they are working on a type of 3D that you can see without glasses. When I can only read about it, I'm intensely curious about what that looks like. Is it like a hologram? Is it just different layers on top of each other?
Although these are not actual pictures, they give us a beautiful idea of what TDCP is working on. We now have an idea in of what a device may look like that helps surgeons and generals. We can see how multiple angles are possible. It bolstered my confidence in the future of this company.
I can understand not wanting to mislead potential investors, but if we posted them in the board's intro, we could write "Artist's Depictions:" above them.
Moderators: flaflyersfan, sleepthief, OTCdoc, chemist72, or LightSpeed1
Please add one or more of the pictures from the blog to this board's intro section. If more people are coming to check out TDCP here, we might as well wow them now that we have pics.

Yes, I'm trying to contain my excitement.
Between the blog and the volume today, I'm pretty darn confident about this investment.
The blog's pictures sold me on this stock all over again. It kind of irks me that 3DIcon's website is so mundane. They could have and should have put up these kind of pictures. Thank God they have Schott helping them market the product.
Admins, please put some of these pictures in the intro to this board.
Everything must have been peachy keen before Manu got ousted, said no one ever...
...except for Tracy Haynes:
The real trouble started when the company decided to oust founder and CEO Manu Kumaran.
These two don't match:
GPB News (Sarah McCammon): Nevada Judge Denies Former Medient CEO’s Request For Restraining Order, Sets Trial Date
SavannahNow (Julia Ritchey): Medient Studios gets legal victory, temporary restraining order lifted
McCammon seems to think today was about Manu extending the TRO and that there will be an upcoming trial. Also, she contends that the judge will rule on Manu getting attorney's fee (The docket shows clearly that the judge requests Medient submit support for getting fees). Maybe she got confused when she called the court reporter? So many were calling to see if the TRO was dropped in addition to the denied requests that the clerk may have given her the wrong idea about what today's hearing was about and given her the trial date which, in my opinion, is now obsolete.
Ritchey's understanding matches mine.
NOT DISSOLVED! Did you read it?!
H764 - PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION D355 - Denied filed on: 23-Jul-2014
Extra Text: COURT ORDERED REQUEST FOR RECEIVER AND PRELIMINARY INJUNCTION DENIED. COUNSEL ROBINSON SHALL SUBMIT A PROPOSED ORDER TO DEPT. 3 FOR SIGNATURE. COURT FURTHER ORDERED DEFENDANTS REQUEST FOR FEES TAKEN UNDER ADVISEMENT; DEFENSE COUNSEL SHALL FILE AN AFFIDAVIT IN SUPPORT OF FEE REQUEST AND PLAINTIFF'S COUNSEL SHALL FILE A RESPONSE 2 DAYS THEREAFTER.
Bought my first shares of TDCP today. Pretty excited about the future. Financing will come and volume will increase and I got in early. :)
The volume is so much lower than I thought it would be. Must be a lot who decided to hold.
Did anyone do the math on the 8K to see if it matches with the current OS? I'm just wondering if, even now, more shares are going to be added to the panic of the grey.
The restraining order has been granted.
I had dollar signs in my eyes
I knew the studio was a winner
And each new low was a better buy
Averaging down, but my portion got thinner
Perhaps I should cut my losses
As the gray, graveyard is no place to dwell
Or can Shapiro, et al, perform like bosses?
And is it Wisdom that whispers, "this can't end well"
They knew it was going to end any day and decided to get as much from us as possible. I feel foolish and angry. Who knows, maybe Manu started hearing the investors and got booted because he started wanted to put the brakes on dilution and Jake wasn't having it. I think Jake was always pulling the stock strings, because Manu, by his own admission, was clueless about stocks. I fume thinking of the possibility that he said, "the days of endless dilution are over," to inspire just enough confidence to dump a billion more.
Is there any possible scenario where Yellow gets released, is popular, and someone else buys us? lol
I fell in love with a good story and rationalized that my averaging down was the ability to buy more of a good bet more cheaply. It cost me a lot, but I did learn a lesson I thought I was too savvy to need to learn: NEVER FALL IN LOVE WITH A STOCK.
Halted or Suspended? Both.
I've seen a number of posts where people are trying to say halt is an incorrect term. The truth is that this is a halt caused by an SEC suspension. While I agree that the word suspension removes ambiguity, halt is accurate. Focus on the money trail, Manu, Shapiro, Atlas, and preparing yourself for decisions when the stock resumes trading on July 10th.
From OTC BB Trading Halt Codes:
Trading Halts Codes
Code Description
H10 Trading Halt - SEC Trading Suspension. The Securities and Exchange Commission has suspended trading in the security until further notice .
T3 Trading Halt Resumption - The time when the security is released for trading.
U1 Trading Halt - Foreign Regulatory Halt. Trading is halted because the OTC Equity Security or the security underlying an American Depository Receipt ("ADR") that is an OTC Equity Security ("OTC ADR") is listed on or registered with a foreign securities exchange or market, and the foreign securities exchange, market, or regulatory authority overseeing such issuer, exchange, or market, has halted trading in such security for regulatory reasons because of public interest concerns or for news pending.
U2 Trading Halt - Derivative Halt. Trading is halted because the OTC Equity Security or the security underlying an OTC ADR is a derivative or component of a security listed on or registered with a national securities exchange or foreign securities exchange or market ("listed security") and the national securities exchange, or foreign securities exchange or market has imposed a trading halt in the listed security.
U3 Trading Halt - Extraordinary Event Halt. Trading is halted because FINRA has determined that an extraordinary event has occurred or is ongoing that has had a material effect on the market for the OTC Equity Security or the security underlying an OTC ADR or has caused or has the potential to cause major disruption to the marketplace or significant uncertainty in the settlement and clearance process.
I'm not sure John Henry is being completely honest. I'm betting that he is prepping for the possibility of the studio falling through by saying the infrastructure (the well, etc) was already in the plan with or without Medient (to avoid anger of tax-payers). If I'm right, it's typical politics and just means he acknowledges the chance that Medient may fail and that he needs to look like he avoided financial risk.
PS. Was trying not to look... to take a two week vacation from MDNT... but...
ARGGHH! Must ween myself.
This is a very entertaining stock. I just wish the entertainment value was worth my price of admission. I'm holding, partly because my position's value has gotten to a place where I might as well risk what remains and partly on the basis of Koppelman's reputation. I don't trust Jake, but I supremely hope he is in this to build something he can be proud of.
I found myself excited that there was strong support at 0.0011 and it disturbs me that I've become conditioned to find things to be excited about in a stock on a crappy red day. I still have hope that the PPS will come up, but since I'm not selling, I'm done watching for a couple weeks.
Good long to all relentless longs!
Crescendo maybe?
Totally agree. A lot of times I don't know what to think, because the details on negotiating financing for construction are not public knowledge. However, my suspicion has been that with dilution coming strong, he needed it right away to clear the way for progress with financing and construction.
If this is accurate, then I think I'd do same damn thing and endure, even people I highly respect, like DPS, giving me scorn. I hate dilution, but if that's the only way to pay enough debt to get a bank involved in solid financing, so be it. Riches will come, since phase II and III already have backers contingent on phase I happening.
Side note on some comments I've seen:
Anytime someone's rotundness becomes involved in a criticism, I immediately lose a lot of respect for the critic, even if I agree with the rest of what they are saying. We deal with people honorably, not solely on the basis of whether they deserve it or not, but because we are honorable.
Dilution stops after Yellow debt cleared? Did I read this correctly?

@Smitty_Gold:
I see weakness, not strength. This strategy is insane from a CEO/CFO point of view! Give a Hoot, Don't Dilute!! Needs 2 Stop!!
@manukumaran:
almost all debt on Yellow has been cleaned up.. almost there
Here we go! Surprised if we don't close green.

What I don't understand is why sell now, there are a lot of great things about to happen and one could easily sell 80% less shares and get the same amount of money if they let it run.
