Following is an interesting quote at minute 6-7 into a recent interview with Nikola CEO, Steve Girsky. This quote reminds me of a point ihub member B_B! has been making for some time now on the PLUG board, that is that Big Oil Companies, in a sneaky diabolical way, may be pretending to be supporting the hydrogen economy, but are in fact trying to disrupt it, or at a minimum trying to delay it. I believe in a very diplomatic way, Nikola CEO, Steve Girsky, is saying that he doesn't trust Big Oil Companies as partners, good for him. the relevance to FCEL, is their relationship with ExxonMobil, could they be playing similar games?

Minute 6:06
"Disrupting that market, we're trying it on the truck side we're trying it on the fuel side and and we encourage partners on the fuel side also. But let's be honest Allan we need like-minded Partners we're trying to build a coalition of a purpose-built coalition a coalition of the Willing people who are like-minded we have since we put trucks on the road. We are getting more interest from potential Partners than we ever have but if we have Big Oil Company come over and say we want to partner with you on stations that's great because they have money, we're Capital constrained, but there's one problem we move faster than they do ,and the second problem is, if they're late by a year, no one in their company cares, if we're late by a year we're out of business. We go to work every day like our life depends upon it, because it does, this is all we do, and we need to find Partners who feel the same way."
