I argued against that point. This isn't strictly a science endeavor. It is a business endeavor that includes research and developing a pipeline of fibers. You have people bellyaching about not saying anything being unacceptable...then they say something and it is unacceptable. Emotion is part of the game, but it has swung way too far. Get a grip people. There isn't any speeding things up in Vietnam. So Kim has to step up and find a way to mass produce either elsewhere or change the plan and sign some quick agreements with Vietnamese silk industrialists. For all I know things are rolling, but man up if that is the case. The game isn't an easy one and something has to give.
It is fine for jazz to speak his mind, but this isn't strictly a science experiment, and treating it as such is most likely an emotional response to the waiting game. Monster Silk wasn't ready for primetime. It needed homozygosity, yet the breakthrough of spider silk in silkworms was made public. So lets just look as these research or scientific endeavors as the breakthroughs that they are. If this is indeed Gen 3, then we are looking potentially at some pretty good stuff. Whether we are willing to see them for what they are or not, does not diminish Dr. Fraser and co's work.
