That hits the nail squarely on the head.

The release said, with regards to the anode application "the project is in the early stages, but recent encouraging test results give management the confidence to continue its development efforts."

When all specifics are avoided, it makes one wonder if it's because there are no specifics there.

"The Company's CTO, Sharad Mathur, Ph.D., is leading all product development and sales activities as well as building and improving upon the Company's prior technical work to identify additional customer prospects and markets for the Company's halloysite products." Can this guy sell? Has he ever sold anything? Clearly Newsome wasn't so trimming that fat was a good thing, but don't they need a real and proven salesperson to actually close deals?
