Paige, I'm not sure what the point of your question is:
"And all of what has been said about our Army and Navy contracts...I ask you.... Why did we have them sign our Provisional Patent?..Can you answer me that? "
Don't know Paige, but I'm sure Demmo47 (a federal contracting officer) could answer that pronto. My guess is that it's SOP when a government agency is contacting with a private company's intellectual property. It's an acknowledgement by the second party that CDEX considers their property as proprietary and that they are seeking patent protection.
That is a trivial matter compared to the fact that the Army and Navy weren't interested in pursing Phase II development. Also if you checked the file wrapper you'd see that the Army, Navy, Air force and DOE all had the first look at the patent application to determine whether to put the wraps on the patent disclosure as secret. No agency considered it secret.
"Have you kept up on the Nuclear Technologies??
Not really, as I've stated in the past, my main interest was in the XRF technology and the 10/268,678 patent application. There was some hints by our resident Loch/CDEx stock promoters that the XRF tech could be used to monitor the radioisotopes inside nuclear waste drums. I beleive that's possible with x-rays in the 2000-3000 KeV energy range. However, it would be very expensive to develop for a limited market and it's really getting out of their field of expertise IMO. There are many other companies that have a better capability to manufacture such equipment.
As far as monitoring radiation, I don't believe that the Loch/CDEx technology is suited for that at all. Besides as you've read, there are a lot of companies manufacturing geiger counters and similar instruments and they're making them smaller and smaller using technologies unlike anything CDEX has.
What information have you come up with for the use of UVF in the nuclear industry?
