Do you have any idea how many times this claim has been made over the last 10 years? This is nearly a mantra repeated many many many times.
And, here we are.

Thank you, I appreciate your sentiment. I’m still in this, because, there is a glimmer of hope that lightweight pulls something out of the hat that actually is close to what gets discussed on this board regularly. My issue has been that the expectations and the conversation has been way beyond what is the actual ground reality of this technology.
I also will join you in that reminder to myself. When it’s $10 I’m sure it will be a reflection of what is true in that moment.
And I will celebrate with you. Cheers.
The proof of the deception and fallacy of the ‘true long’ narrative is right in front of your face ($3.00). This group has been predicting imminent success year, after year, after year.
You and your ilk have promoted a false narrative for many years now. Marcelli and now Lebby have clearly been misleading.
And you truely believe those who have pointed out the fallacy of these repeatedly false claims are stupid?
There’s a special place for you. It’s called the Third Realm of Photonic Enlightenment or TROPE. There, all your dreams and predictions are actually true.
Lebby sits on a throne and wears a crown of polymer. The true longs surround the throne and in unison declare Lebby the great One and all his utterances are true and above scrutiny and reproach.
You belong there.
The context of Lebby’s comment was performance of the material.
“In addition, using ALD to hermetically seal the pic, gold box packaging is no longer needed and using gold is quite costly. So ALD not only makes the pic more stable but gets rid of costly gold box packaging.”
At the ASM, when asked about poling, Lebby roughly said; “Poling is not a problem. We have other concerns, poling is not one of them.”
My intuition is oxidative degradation is an issue. ALD may be an important step in preventing oxidation, but it may not be sufficient as a single, solo process.
Thermal stability is also not an issue provided oxidation is prevented.
Oxidation is
One for old times sake: “I smell fear in the Shorts”
- a true long
I kid you not. The whole quote is ripe ridicule.
It would be a good exercise to dust off that PR and analyze the language. I simply don’t recall the wording any longer. It was loaded with ambiguity as I recall the gist of it.
Anyway, many of us now know that Lebby is an expert at leading investors to believe something significant is on the cusp of happening, when if fact, it is not.
Thankfully there is a group here now that is happily willing to scrutinize his statements. This was not the case 2-3 years ago. The “true longs” here could not tolerate a rational reading and dissection of Lebby’s statements. tedpeele did much of the heavy lifting and paid for it with a pound of flesh, so to speak.
I’m aiming for an actual healthy dialogue here. There may be a baby in the bath water. I’d like to know what that baby looks like and how developed it is. Listening to Lebby and the “true longs” is not a winning formula in that goal.
Regards
Your assessment is spot on.
“He said would close deals by end of December”
To be fair, Lebby only eluded to the possibility of an agreement for the remainder of 23’ and going into 24’.
His language was clear to me that he was talking with empty forward looking statements, like he does most of the time.
‘We are planning to . . . “ is completely different than; “we are currently. . .”
There is a group here that simply cannot comprehend the difference.
“The lady doth protest too much, methinks”.
Proto, love your unflappable perseverance. It’s so curiously unflappable, that one would wonder if you’re paid to post your stuff here. Be that as it may, your track record speaks for itself.
This company’s stock has gone from a high of $20 3 years ago to now nearing sub $3. All the while you have been predicting wild success at every turn. You have been flat wrong.
The market is not mistaken.
I want to ignore your “feeling“ comment.
However, it does merit a response. Most of the “true longs“ here live on feeling. Feeling primarily of hope. Hope it works out. Hope Lebby is telling the truth. Hope they solve their problems, hope the organic uplisting was for merit, hope somebody signs an agreement, hope the PDKs are written and operational. Lots and lots of hope. Hope is not, I repeat Not a good investment strategy.
Facts are good to invest in. In fact, the facts are extraordinarily difficult to capture when it comes to Lightwave logic.
tedpeele has effectively injected more than reasonable doubt into every ‘fact’ that has been touted by the ‘true longs’ on this board. The true longs here turn the CEO’s most imaginative and misleading forward looking statements into facts. This is complete nonsense.
Let me rephrase, if per chance, Lightwave Logic has a completely unexpected announcement about a real agreement with real revenue, then I will advise those close to me to take a nibble.
I’ll bet anyone here that there is no meaningful agreement by the ASM next year.

Adults - with young children.
If, per chance, some miraculous news about a live, working and manufacturable transceiver comes out with some prospect of a market, I will then advise friends and family accordingly.
Until then, this remains a phantasmagorical delusion of the ‘true longs’ here.
I can afford to take the hit on this stupidity, Not so with young families with children.
So glad I did not take them with me on this.
The only thing I can celebrate, is my children and family members didn’t buy into this nonsense. For that I remain highly grateful.
Yes. I must laugh at myself, be my own worst critic, look in the mirror and say, “you have been played a fool”.
You are correct.
Yeah, I got taken down the rabbit hole of belief. Now it’s just a hole.
By the sounds of it, I should visit Turkey. Sounds fabulous. I have an Italian son in law who says outside of Italy the food in Turkey is first rate.
Given how Lebby evaded answering your questions at the ASM, and has wantonly misrepresented and obfuscated the company’s progress and technical hurdles; how can you give any credibility whatsoever to their claims?
Everything tedpeele states may not be perfectly accurate, however, his skepticism over the company’s claims and representations is more than justified.
At this point; who is the more laughable fool; the skeptic or the blind believer?
Then they have the audacity to ask: ‘who should you trust; us, or some anonymous internet poster’?
It actually depends on the track record, body of work, as it were.
Speaks for itself.
It is tedpeele, depreciated, denigrated, ostracized ridiculed, and rejected tedpeele who owns 100% track record of being right.
The venereated, celebrated, most honored Dr. Micheal Lebby - wrong and misleading.
Good for you, Marco, at least you’re smoking the good stuff.
The action that was taken, was to mislead investors. Organic NASDAQ up listing, agreements in the wings, everything is ready, SAM - SOM. Throw Proto in there dancing around with his crazy predictions of wild success.
Turns out pumpkin was right, Ted Peele was right, everybody who was pointing out mis information was correct.
True longs and their predictions have aged like milk.
You’re kidding right? tedpeele has been 100% correct compared to the “true longs“ on this board.
That is a verifiable, undeniable fact.
You must be literally living in the Third Realm of Photonic enlightenment.
The insanity here is astounding.
Thanks. Much the same here. You’ve done outstanding due diligence and research. You resisted the emotional inclination to ignore bad news and dissidence in the messaging for blind hope for success.
Truthfully I was hoping this would succeed so I could buy out my business partner and hand my family a multi-million dollar business legacy. (First world order problem of the first degree). I am the CEO.
I continually look for talent to manage and grow our steadily growing enterprise. I have a talented management team, so the the bar is high. I’m always evaluating individuals with the question; would I put them on my management team?
Do they have the emotional intelligence, the people skills, the analytical skills, the business acumen and the ability to see through ‘noise’. Are they both kind and shrewd?
You have continually and persistently pointed out the inconsistency and a largely accurate alternative narrative.
Sadly, you have pointed out the reality of what many here have invested in.
Well done.
- You make the cut.
KCCO - thank for your consistent, even-keeled, engagement in this community.
I feel Lebby hedged considerably on the real position of their progress. He was anything but committal to ‘ready for commercialization’.
From a layman’s read, it seems oxidation of EOP is persistent challenge and apparently ALD, in its current form, is not fully adequate as a solution.
Lebby’s ’we have other concerns’, together with his hedge on your question of ‘can you produce devices now?’ confirms the view of committed detractors here. No?
Why can’t any of these true longs digest this information for what it clearly is?
Lebby misled investors in believing the technology was on track and ready for commercialization this year - now.
Unfortunately, they will hopelessly convince themselves it is ready for production, despite Lebby’s acknowledgment of existing issues.
That was 100% prophetic. And yet true longs continued to proclaim him a liar and themselves the bearers of truth.
True Long = 100% wrong.
All Lebby needs to do is fulfill the expectations he and you have set for shareholders. That’s it.
A working pluggable transceiver, an agreement with a tier1:
pick one.
Be careful with your pejoratives Proto. You have been misrepresenting the progress and reality of this company for years.
You are not in a position to call others scum bags, liars and cheats.
Your constant hyperbole and overestimates of this company must be held to the same standard,
Remember, Dr. Lebby is brilliant. He knows what you’ll do with this.
Lebby put the slide in the deck. Does mean it’s real?
Lebby’s lack of transparency makes this impossible to know. What is their major obstacle. Shareholders should know.
“It already works, . . . “. I want this to be true, however, there are “other concerns”. What those concerns are, is anyone’s guess.
Oh no Boomer! A fate no one should endure. I’m so sorry for you- Ignored by Scopey McScopeface.
You’re one of the last posters Scope pays any attention to. OMG, what will you do??
You’re reading the headline. There is nothing of substance in what follows.
Please educate yourself on the Safe Harbor statement. It’s highly revelatory.
From the recent PR: “ . . diligently pursue commercial material supply licensing agreements in 2024 and expects the cadence to grow in 2025 and beyond.
This 100% pure, unadulterated forward looking blather. This is saying nothing about an agreement in process. Not even close. And they are now extending the timeline to 2025.
Sheesh.
WRONG! Diverse view points are critical in discerning truth. Lebby needs a truth detector.
I think we have to start calling it out vein. Investors here have been misled. There are issues that have not been disclosed that are in the way of imminent commercialization.
It is painful to acknowledge this. It has been a long brewing concern that has come to more explicit fruition.
I don’t need more than this: when Lebby was asked directly, if there was a request to produce a commercialized product today, could it be done? His response was; ‘I obviously cannot comment on that’.
What’s obvious about it?
The ground truth of this company’s, progress and real position toward commercialization, has been difficult to discern in the extreme.
It has not helped, at all, to have a group of “True Longs“ who have constantly beat the drum of “its time”, “it’s ready”, “it’s done” and Dr. Lebby is beyond reproach.
Accurate analysis. The “true longs” dismiss and name call you. You have been far more correct than any “true long”.
Your track record of accurately evaluating this company’s true progress as a commercial enterprise has been spot on.
It speaks for itself.
