Honestly I don’t what to make of this Smitty cat. I appears to me that he is trying to convince everyone that the one single reason that the Goetz’s invented the Perkinamine family of molecule “stability” at CMOS temperatures is not really all that important and can somehow be worked around. If he hadn’t Dis’d Bintz, Z, shoot even Leonberger in a roundabout way and JM for no apparent reason then I’d think that perhaps he is actually here to contribute but if he is an outsider that has never dealt with them then he wouldn’t have went there on his first post.
What about this comment about Bintz? "From my understanding he lives in Oregon and is in Delaware less than 50% of the time." First of all, I’m (X) fairly close to this I haven’t a clue how much Bintz spends in Delaware, as I understand it since Greenlee left all that he (Bintz) would do here is test, so 50% testing and 50% at the LSS sounds reasonable, hardly a reason to BASH Bintz?
This is from his first post:
“Perhaps Greenlee has morals and he does not believe in the lies that management is giving to the investors about the "greatness" of these materials.”
This is from his third
“I do not know Greenlee. My thoughts were based on pure speculation because I have been in a situation myself in the past. I worked for a company that portrayed themselves as something that they were not. I felt it was my moral obligation to leave the company as soon as I could.” (So Greenlee left without notice a reference that I don't think he'll be able to use in the future especially when this succeeds)

“If you look at his (Greenlee’s) profile on linkedin you will notice he has extensive experience in polymer devices and testing using great materials.” Why the word "GREAT" Ax to grind, YUP

“Tom and Jim know about Soluxra. The white paper listed on the old website from former employee Greenlee was based on a SLM using Soluxra's material! This is the link to the publication I found on Greenlee's LinkedIn pofile.”

“My choice of words was a bit harsh I admit but how do you expect Lou to know everything about the company? From my understanding he lives in Oregon and is in Delaware less than 50% of the time. Tom and Jim live in Colorado complicating things further. Also I think people have been too impressed with Lou to look at his background. He has worked more with the design and poling of EO modulators and not the characterization of the actual material. We have mutual colleagues in the industry and I will leave it at that.”
Sixs question “Do you know Charles Greenlee?”
Smitty’s response
“Yes. He is one of my LinkedIn contacts. I don't know him personally but I have been seen some of his research back when he worked with UW, Georgia Tech, and UA”
(Why even have LinkedIn contacts if you do not know them? Why not just let google link everyone together like they know everyone in their industry??? Just an observation from the X Man)
Honestly I think that in a roundabout way he is trying to get back at them somehow by playing you guys against them. Perhaps he somehow lost out in the Bintz/Greenlee take my ball and leave if I don't get my way maneuver. Many on here now enjoy whining and complaining and if that is why you’ve invested your money then enjoy, honestly you are playing right into his hands. Whatever guys, the single reason that I’m here is that there are Billion dollar CMOS facilities and many iterations of Perk can help to bridge that gap.
If we don’t think that Joe Miller and Fred Leonberger know the correct path to bring game changing technology to market after the Many, many successes at doing it then Whatever. I’m still accumulating, so bash away, I know that some of you value your portfolios by the minute, me, not so much. Has this been far longer than I thought, Yup but I’m not going to get mad at myself and beat myself up for it. I made the call at the time, I thought it was right, if I decide it was wrong I’ll sell and move on, not get up every day and hit myself in the head whine and moan on a public board.
Have a Good Day,
X
