Dennis Fisher is a great visionary and has assembled a tremendous team. ... I also believe that his lack of higher education may be a burden at times.



I am a professor at a university and it pains me a bit to say that higher education often can stand in the way of visionary innovation. We teach people how to develop and expand on an existing idea. I don't know of any way to teach how to be a visionary and come up with a new idea. Seldom has a real visionary breakthrough come from someone with a university degree or advanced degrees. A visionary usually needs the technological sophistication of a university educated person to bring his dreams to fruition.

Studies have repeatedly shown that a college degree is NOT required for entrepreneurial success. Unfortunately, the degree often stands in the way of a potential entrepreneur. However, a successful entrepreneur needs to know when to bring in the educated workers to transform the vision to a successful enterprise. Entrepreneurs seldom make good business people.

When DF stepped down and brought in BG, I relaxed and saw that BEHL was much more likely to succeed. They do have a GREAT team. I believe they will succeed

That being said, BEHL is a startup trying to commercialize a product in a brand new field. Not an easy task. They will have failures. I like it that they seem to be taking a step-by-step approach to work out the kinks and making sure the transition from the small demonstration unit to a 10 acre unit will be as smooth as possible.

Notes to all:

We need to give them the time to make it work. Success is not assured. However, if they do succeed, we will reap huge rewards. Be patient or move on.

Remember too that every poster here has their own agenda. Even me. The agenda may not be clear to you, but you are the one responsible for your own investment. Do not let any poster here talk you into selling or holding or buying. Do you own DD and buy or hold or sell based on that information.
