“They failed to produce enough silk for even one shoot pack for the Army contract.”
I don’t believe the lab could have produced 200 lbs but it could have produced maybe 40 or 50 lbs…
The problem wasn’t really producing the DS, it was turning it into fabric…out of all the machines and equipment that were needed, only a few were capable of working with DS…and those few did not want to put Kblb to the front of the line nor make the changes to their equipment for such a small amount of product…
There were lots of various issues because Kblb really wasn’t ready…But I don’t think the issue was that Kblb couldn’t make the DS….I doubt they could have made 200lbs, but they could make DS…
“They failed to produce enough silk for even one shoot pack for the Army contract.”
No, they failed to produce the shoot packs but I don’t believe it was due to a lack of DS…
“When they ship eggs to Vietnam, they are not shipping millions of eggs, they are shipping hundreds”
If this is true, then imo, it proves that prodigy works…
“Claiming that there is a problem in ‘acclimating’ is just nonsense. Silkworms don’t acclimate”
Acclimate to the ENVIRONMENT…and yes, every living thing has to adjust to new environments…and silkworms seem to be rather delicate creatures…I should think especially ones that have been raised in a controlled environment for hundreds of generations…
“Thompson knows what the problems are but he disguises the problems using misleading terms like ‘acclimation.’ Shareholders deserve better communication than this.”
On this we disagree…more specific info
would not matter…and in this case, would not be good to release…if the issues were not what was claimed…but I think they are what Kim said they were…it makes sense…
Wanting the reasons to be worse than they are doesn’t help anything..
